Title: KTM,Can AM,Maico - Ohlins single shock manuals
Post by: LWC82PE on February 24, 2009, 06:54:51 pm
I am looking for any Ohlins single shock manuals from the 1980’s OR any KTM/Can AM/Maico (or any other bikes that had Ohlins single shocks) manuals that have rebuilding/parts info on vintage single Ohlins Shocks.

I know the early 80’s Can Am manuals have good sections on Ohlins twin shocks so im wondering if the later single shock Can Am’s have rebuilding info on Ohlins single shocks aswell.

If someone could scan this info out of their manuals for me that would be good. I can pay for it if needed

Or if anyone can just tell me what KTM/Can Am/Maico workshop manuals have info on Ohlins Single shocks then I will try and hunt down that specific manual and it will be a starting point

2 bikes that may have ohlins info in their workshop manuals are

Maico Spider ( I don’t know what capacity it is)
Can Am 250/500 single shock

Thanks for any Help

I HAD one, the manual only shows how to remove and install shock,no particular details on the shock itself.

ok looks like maico is not good then. everyone else i spoke to said the Maico manuals only have info on Corte & cosso. i reckon Can Am manuals might be the right way to go but they are really hard to find. I still cant find one on the 80/81/82 MX6 & qualifier
