    No, sorry I don't. What I do have though is some new Adjustable piggyback shocks that Robin Packham at Falcon Shocks has just sent me

    Think I will be working in the Garage tonight... P1000740.JPG

    What lengths is Robin doing in those Andy ? A 15"3/4 would be good. Do you have prices yet ?

    Robin will make anything you want lengthwise. These are 18 1/4'' for the 83/84 Enduro bikes...

    Expect the price with tax to be a touch over the £800 mark for adjustable pairs.

    I am making a batch of Fork top nuts with pressure relief valves in them. Obviously - the 300's have them on

    The ones shown are the prototypes made from modified Evo caps. (don't go there, as it is more work than you may think) The new made ones will be good for any bike from 82 - 88 conventional Husky forks....

    A picture from the facebook page of the Trefle. Seems like the race is quite hard due to cold and bad weather. Also some snow from the pictures: http://www.trefle-lozerien-amv.com/.

    Yes, the actual bike is in the museum in Sweden! I took the inspiration for the air cooled 300s from that...

    Don't think I will go power valved though - well not this side of Christmas!

    The compromise will always be exhaust port height without a power valve! I have 300 MX cylinders that rev better, but I tend to use the 300 Enduro ported cylinder with the extra 2 transfers on the inlet and the extra 2 on the exhaust as per 84 l/c cylinders. The torque is better but the sacrifice is pure top end. In reality, no 30 year old bike will be as good as a new one - but I don't think I would go any better on a new bike and they have character that is sadly missing from new bikes!
