Oh yeah, by some Tuesday I meant in a few weeks from now.
Wellies. Yup, google tells me, spelled right. Or those dumb little blow up floaties that you put on your biceps could be useful too.

True, however after a full year of "breaking them in" they are still doing the same catching thing that I've told all 3 of you about. Sometimes it goes away for a few events only to come back and the go away after a few miles. But sometimes it doesn't. Like this last weekend at the PMP2 Hill Climb where it was noticeable during the event making it even rougher then course already was.

I understand that it might not have been there when they were sent out. However, it has been there since I put them on the day after I received them. I’m also curious if all of them are as extremely bouncy on the normal paved roads from speeds of 0-90 MPH.

Sorry for completely high jacking of the dead thread.

Ahh, maybe a send back makes sense. Hadn't heard of that from you since they were brand spanking new. I'd offer to give you a ride in the BMW with JVABs, but well...damn blown up engines. I'm sure grant could offer you a ride in the Merkur in about 4 years once its finally back together... Maybe you could bribe Scott to put his car back together?

Sounds like you need to go faster...moar engine! Or, next time you have it out, take me for a ride around the block.

Can't fix anything if you can't post piccies or work with me.

Particularly intermittent things , particularly from here.

Sounds like they need to be serviced (taken apart, cleaned, lubed) I do this on JVABSs after every event, it takes about 3-4 Led Zeppelin songs per strut, thanks to the detachable knuckles. I like to use Bel-Ray grease from the moto-cross shop.

It's been the same "sticking" pops have been a problem since I put them on the day after I recived them 13 months ago which I discussed over the phone with you a couple of days later. The none stop low & high speed springy bounce is also the same issue since day one.

I'm taking the car over to the Grant/Dave/Scott/Mitch man cave tonight just to double check with them that I'm not full of it, and it's actually a regular thing. And if not, then I'll mail them back in the next month or so.

Thanks,
Ryan

Driving a rally car on the street can make you lose fillings. Super bouncy.
Neither Scott or I will be there tonight. Dave might, but I won't.

Time to get this topic back on track! IT'S HERE! IT'S HERE! IT'S HERE! Took 12 minutes to download it's 3.04gb of awesomeness and every once of my "will power" to not start watching it. But it doesn't mean I can't start up the extras in the back ground while working. Like the very short rambling of John
