  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

All 2st Outer chamber TC 50mm Marzocchi?

Anyone experiment with the oil volume in the outer chamber of the TC 50mm Marzocchi forks?

Italy recommends 7.5wt @ 300ml or cc for enduro.

Manual says 7.5wt @ 320ml or cc.

Thanx
 
Thanks NWRider.

I did not see the actual write up from Ron. I do not have a lot of hours on the bike and couldn't believe how dirty the oil was and sludge in bottom of outer cartridge. I just paid good money about 10 hrs ago on bike to have it revalved/sercied and very obvious that the bladders weren't bled with all the dimples in them.
 
Ok I get it now, by TC you meant twin chamber not TC the model of bike the forks came on. I may be slow but I'm not stupid LOL :doh:
 
Hey,

That's okay, you learn something new every day. Heck it's harder just to keep up with all the new acronyms daily!
 
I revalved mine after about 20 hours and did it again after another 25 or so. The cartridge fluid was in bad shape both times. I thought the point of a TC was to keep the oil that is doing the valving clean:excuseme: The outer oil looked a lot better. Regardless they are nice forks if valved correctly and bled.
 
Thanx, looks like I'll service them 2x year. I think mine are flowing but just too stiff springs.

I'll start @260 and can always drop in 10 @ time.

I really do like these forks.

Do you guys know what size the stock springs are for the 09 Wr 125?

Guess I'll pick up some oil and make the bleed tool out of 1 1/2 pvc pipe, this weekend. I would think it would be easier to oil wrestle with a couple of girls than with the zoke bladder!
