Actually yes I do although I don't know the state of it (it's prettier but I've never tried it).

Well it worked a treat on the bike but who knows unless you pull it apart.

If I'm honest I preferred it to the Ohlins but I suspect that's more I haven't got that properly setup rather than it's better.

Any of those shocks still going spare?



Update, I have a frame, a motor and a TIG welder... so about the same as months ago, but now my welding is a little prettier

I can Tig Weld Stainless if you provide the Welding equipment

Just seen Yorkies post above , I can also make brackets and machine stuff , heck give me acces to a lathe and a milling machine and I can make you allsorts

Learning the TIG myself, getting slowly better

I can do very tidy welds on large Diameter pipework like exhaust diameter , especially if it`s an Argon Gas and Tungsten Tip setup .

I can MIG weld you pretty much anything you want. I have access to a BIG shed which houses my £1000 mig welder I love welding shame its not a TIG. I do have access to a nice Oxford Stick welder though

Can you MIG aluminium?

Me personally ? or is it possible do you mean . I have had a go at it and there is a fine line between blowing holes in the Aluminium or getting no penetration on the weld itself . You`ll need a very nicely set up MIG welder in fairly good condition . Don`t forget that a lot of bike frames and things like that will use a special type of Aluminium that will have different characteristics after extreme heat is applied to them .
