Cool! Thanks for writing this down. Now I have to sit down and compare my notes. Did you check or change the base valve?

Why would you want that type of a tittle then? I thought the whole point of titling a dirt bike is to be able to make it street legal.

That's what I heard too. Alta is not done yet, but it is for sale. The bids have not been accepted or rejected. We were supposed to learn the fate of Alta exactly a month ago, but we are still waiting.

NICE!!! Is this a Yamaha fender with a Husky front number plate? Mark has a second set of WP Cone Valve forks?!! o_O:love: That was my first reaction. I didn't notice a Ferrari either, LOL!

(y) I must have mis-read your original post. You were going to use just the XC oil level spec, not the XC fork.

How did you do that? Is the ordering open already?

I went out for a couple of trail rides. The slider is holding up well. No visible wear.

If so, then why are you not happy with the stock damping? It seems to match the stock soft springs pretty well. The stock 4CS works way better than any other stock 4CS forks that I have tried.

Yes, exactly. The MX stock suspension is too soft for motocross. The springs are barely stiff enough to support the bike's own weight during jump landings. But it is okay for trail riding. It shouldn't have been called MX, it should have been called EX. BTW, does the EX have the exact same...

Alta sent me some MX suspension info earlier this year. They also sent me the stiffer MX shim stack specs for riders weighing more that 100 lbs. PM me your email address if you want that spreadsheet.

How is the MX version mounted on the bike?

The 4CS is filled not by volume but up to a level. The Alta 4CS oil level spec is 65mm from the top. You measure it with the spring removed and the fork fully bottomed out. The lower chamber needs to be filled completely full and then burped or bled. There are a couple of WP videos on...

I was lucky this month I got to use the huge RV garage that my AZ landlord rents separately. The guy who rented the RV garage won't be using it until January, so I got to use it! I have done some more electrical wiring work, mostly fixing the earlier mess. There is still a lot of work left in...

I have decided to tackle the filthy rear subframe problem on my new bike. This is where the water puddles after every pressure washing: All the large cavities have drain holes at the bottom. But none of the small ones do. The water and the dirt seem to collect mostly in the outer layer of...

Mark said he sent me something experimental. I hope that means it is better, but I have nothing to compare it to. I might go ride it at night a little tomorrow.

No, it is only a 10". It probably just looks bigger when someone else whips it out.

Got my Task Racing light mounted! Thank you, @MrTaskRacing

USPS flat rate boxes and envelopes are the best deal when it comes to shipping internationally, if you can stuff your parts in them. But even regular boxes are still cheaper to ship than FedEx or UPS.

Ok, there you go: Black Widow Aluminum Double Motorcycle Carrier - 600 lbs. Capacity You might be able to do Land Rover wheelies with two Altas in the back!

Hahaha!!! :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Congrats, Butch! That's not how I said it, but that was the idea. Now you will have to buy a two-bike hitch carrier for your Land Rover!
