The rest is also usually reliable, what do you need ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b40rt Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 I got my one back, eventually. Its an earlier TX 240 with conventional Piolli (sp)forks, so cant help with oil etc. Ross Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mines a 280 with marzocchi forks on , 35mm stantions same as my mini bike but different internals . Hard to find info on them , might email Marzocchi see if they know .
