Report Scratched Fork Stanchions in General Trials Talk Posted February 14, 2012 Cheers guys, Philpots (pitted forks) have been recommended by another friend. Will give a go at repairing them. Cheers Al
Report Scratched Fork Stanchions in General Trials Talk Posted February 13, 2012 I put them in to a friend's bike shop to have the seals done. They have tried to rub them down and clean them up but don't think the new seals will last too long with the stanchions as they are. I've had a quick google and regrinding and replating seems quite a common occurrence. Would be nice to have a reccomendation of who to use. Al

Report Repacking Rear Silencer in Sherco Posted February 13, 2012 Cheers Sam sounds good. I'm going to have a go at mine I think but will buy a new one if needed. Al
Report Repacking Rear Silencer in Sherco Posted February 1, 2012 Repacking Has been done using methods mentioned by folks that like to experiment, however a new one is perferred. One may soak it on petrol and flush it out good and use a wire brush to help. This is ok if the packing is still ok. Air dry it after! I might try and flush it through, but I think it will end up with a new one. Thanks for the help. Al
Report Repacking Rear Silencer in Sherco Posted January 29, 2012 Has anyone had much success trying this? I was thinking it either needs the welds ground back and split open or a hole cut in the side. Neither job looks that easy to do neatly. I have a friend who is an alloy welder so not to worried about having it put back together, just getting it to that stage i'm not sure about. Trying to decide if the the hassle outweighs the cost of a new one. Cheers Al
Report Tech Manual in Sherco Posted January 29, 2012 Does anyone have a link to where I can download the tech manual for my '06 Sherco 125? One that will have torque values etc and not just basic servicing details. Cheers Al

Report Rear shock options? in Sherco Posted January 8, 2012 Hi guys, I'm rebuilding my 2006 Sherco 125 and the rear shock is scrap. I've looked at the Ohlins and the Jitsie both a lot of money compared to what the bike is worth. I saw a replacement Olle shock on a French site for 290 euros, is there a uk supplier for these?
