    sounds likes i might have a challenger might have to find a nitros setup
    but a more interesting race could be the pe 175 with the fat guy vs the yz 125
    with the skiny guy and twenty years of inprovements but i am hoping the green green bike you speak of has
    half a litre of two stroke goodness
    thanks steve

    yep 1lb of it. Cant stress how much work/parts it needs though so its a winter winner for sure.

    At least a race on previous terms means we swap bikes and do it again to be fair, race both ways overall like the salt lakes.

    TBH i was jealous when you got 3 oldies in 1 go! My first 250 was a TS and a mate had a PE 175 so i do love em. As im sure you know them PE's are yellow gold these days and im thinking seroiusly about vintage MX myself after having a read of the latest ADB. Make a pretty one of the 2 and your set steve!

    all the shafts look ok was basicly full of mud and the fluid had the consistancy of water so ive cleaned it all out
    refilled with 10w30 oil and reasembled wasnt quite sure what pressure to put in the air side so went with a 100 psi
    which rises to 300 psi when the shock is compressed fully rebound rate feels ok maybe a fraction slow but wont really know untill i take it for a decent ride
    my first time rebuilding a shock their not so scary after all
    thanks steve
