Markings on fork adjusters.........

Post by vtrjock »

Evening gents.
Scuse me if I'm dragging over old ground here but I've noticed a centre punch mark on each of the fork adjusters top face (adjacent to the "H" letters. Is this put on after the forks have been modded or.......was the previous owner Eric Bristow??!!

I thankyou!

Manual says something to the effect of,

"to return to standard settings turn clockwise as far as it will go, then turn anti-clockwise until the dot lines up with the arrow (approx 1 turn)"

Hope this helps.
Have fun & Ride Safe.
Phil.
