Re: Kawa's Lude
I think they came with the drop links but can not be sure. I brought the whole lot about 6 years ago and only fitted them about 2 years ago.Merlin wrote:Kawa by and chance do you have a note of the part number for the ES poly front ARB drop link bushes?
Large gaps in time, too much beer and of coarse, age, play there part in memory loss.

2012 - Compression Test
She's a little smoky, so Si helped us with a compression test.
All cylinders were pretty consistant, 250 to 260 psi, which is I now understand is high. After completion we noticed the compression tester does not return to 0, but starts at 40!!
Needless to say, a new compression tester on order and will keep a look out for a top end gasket set as Si think's she's smoking from worn valve stem oil seals.
I think a winter top end rebuild is on the cards.

An update! Hope it's all well apart from that
