Been playing - added new Lifan 140 with IRK, Fast ace rear 1000lbs shock about to attack the rear swing arm to fit 15mm axles

NO_crf_here, have you tried the 1000lbs shock with the a-frame swinger? i thought the leverage ratios on the a-frames were HEAAAAPS less than the monoshock type swinger, hence all the 550lb shocks out there... i tried a 1000lb shock in my 04 thumpy, and you literally could not move the suspension... way too stiff...

??????

yeh i had it on my motard for about .... 30seconds it'll do for now, old shock needs new rubbers

 

[thump*140]

yeah but do it bounce??? or is it the sprung equivalent of drag struts??

it more like haveing a firm piece of hardwood inserted!

keep it mate,whether you restore it or leave it in the corner of the shed the original thumpstars are the pioneers of the china bikes and that tittle can never be taken from them they are a part of pitbike history

[china boy788]

wat ever happen to that akunar head you had?

 

[no_crf50_here]

I lent it to a mate but i think he killed it when his motor hard locked in a race meet. Will find out what happened in the new year. Think the gearbox failed

looks good, the front wheel looks huge!

so cashing or thrashing??

 

[no_crf50_here]

don't know yet, still heaps of little things to go yet.

axels are too long, have to sort rear brakes, mount or remove oil cooler, tidy up wires, longer clutch cable, need kill switch, might go a new tank, swap out rear shock, that's the to do list for now
