RM250/400 shock reservoir
« on: February 14, 2008, 06:06:41 pm »
I seem to have misplaced my factory shock reservoir and hose of my RM400N. In the process of rebuilding/restoring the original shocks. If someone has an old one lying about they no longer need please let me know!! (I have moved house since this resto started..)

I did not know this type of shock are of any value to anyone.. Every week we take some to Sims Metal.  Perhaps we should keep them from now on.  :o

all i need are some pretty good low use ones that are not leaking and have good shafts. even if they have stuffed bump stops im pretty sure the bottom eyes are lock tited in and im getting the specail tool to get the bottom eyes off and then i can put on new ohlins or fox bump stops as they will fit. the RM shocks are a about 10mm too short i think and are not really any good to me but im only keeping them to swap for some PE shocks or other parts as i know they are sought after by guys restoring RM's so i dont want to just give them away.
