Hi all I'm new to forum and think it is awesome

My 2011 gas gas txt 250 has two broken rebound adjustment screws on the top cap of the marzocchi forks I bought the bike like this and just want to set the bike up correctly for my riding style as the ford are a lot harder than previous bikes

Could anyone shed any light on this problem

It seems like it's a fault as I have never came accross one never mind both

Cheers guys

I'm afraid that I can't be of much help to you, other than the "Misery loves company" aspect of it...... I'm riding with a broken one myself on my 2010 280 Pro, and a friend of mine in our Trials club tells me that it's a very common problem. When I checked into simply buying an adjuster, I was told that I needed to purchase the entire cartridge to get one! I can't recall the price on that, but it was spendy!

FWIW, mine had enough of the adjuster left that I managed to take a very narrow file, and file a slot in the brass the a small bladed screwdriver can get into (after I'd "broken" the thing loose). Did this while doing an oil change of the forks. And honestly, I have to go to the very "extreme" ends of the adjustment to feel any difference, most of the time.

I wish I had a lathe at home. I run a CNC Lathe for a living, but the company I work for doesn't allow us to do any "home projects" like this. It would seem to be a fairly simple part for someone to make. If I recall correctly, the adjuster is swaged onto a small diameter aluminum rod that it moves up & down to restrict the oil flow inside the damping rod??
