Did you end up rebuilding the rear shock or just replacing it? I've been looking for resources on rebuilding the rear shock for my sc28 and haven't had a lot of luck finding any

@counter-steer

3 жыл бұрын

Hey Kevin. The rear shock’s just about the only thing that didn’t need fixing... have you tried CMSNL for parts?

you clear coated the decals? would you do that again or just buy gloss decals instead (if available)

@counter-steer

Жыл бұрын

When working without OEM decals I prefer to clearcoat... you don't want non weather resistant vinyl (especially if printed on) exposed to the elements. I used to spray bikes for a living in the late 90's and always used to clear the hell out of everything so didn't give it a second thought.

Love it ❤ I also have black RR-N which I'm getting back to original. It's already almost 100k km driven but still technically in good condition. It's fairings also need new decals and those look really good, couldn't find H to the O with google, could you point me to the correct direction?
