  2. Hi all

    My rear Shock has unscrewed itself from a bowl at the bottom of the shock and theres no thread left so doesn't grip on. So when I lift the bike of the ground the back wheel stays on the ground. I could weld it but that would be a last resort.

    I have found a 2003 250 shock in good condition would this just swap straight over. If not is there any way of securing the shock back in to the bowl at the bottom. Just to make it clearer it is the bottom of the shock where the bolt goes through the shock to secure it.

    Sorry for the explanation . I am only 12 and am useless whith shocks/suspension.

    Thanks Ben

  3. Thanks zippy

    Just been down to my woods and tried what you recommended it worked I might even try lower ,what would you think would be as low as I could go.

    I now understand what you mean by tyre flexing.

    Thanks alot

  4. I run 2 -2.5 psi (but I am only 12 and not that heavy!)

    Not sure what to run in the front at the moment but it is about 7psi and always tends to slip away from me on down hill turns

  6. Hi

    Have just been out on my bike today and when I was lifting the back round to put in the shed I noticed when you lift the back up the bike goes up but the rear wheel stays on the ground untill lifted quite high.

    Does anyone know what's wrong?

    Thanks,Ben. Age 12
