I never meant to direct that at you. I humbley apoligize.....i should never go on line when im tired.

Yes i dismantled the forks i drained them, everthing is aligned and yes i will study the links ratchet sent me. Did i mention i worked at a mc repair shop as head mechanic

Ok,when i purchased her n i say her because she can be a *&%## sometimes but ya gotta love her, she rode great then it started getting stiff so i changed the oil with amsoil light fork oil, put in exactly what factory recomends (factory dealers man. dont ever buy one) and she rode perfect, i dont put much of a load on her since most of my riding was in nyc (pot holes the size of snake river canyon) i wieght about 180 pounds. anyhow then it started to ride hard again so i drained 1/4 oz and it made no difference. She does not bottom she just wont move much and at a stand still she only moves about 3 inches with all my wieght being forced down and recently the bushings are starting to go probabally due to the front end not working properly, or could that be due to hard braking, you do have to compete with cabs and buses in the city, hope this is enough, thank you.

After i cursed the engineers i took it all apart and cut away about 3 inches on the cover that blocks our beloved grease fitting

My 03 v11 sport front end is as hard as nails even at lowest settings. please help!!!!

ya regulator is gone allright ! Try motoelectics.com they have the upgrade that the factory is using as replacement and the stock. same thing just happend too me

No timing marks on my 03 v11, I would never stick a screwdriver in the spark plug hole,but you can use your thumb over hole and wait for compression or for about ten bucks you can get a top dead center tool, sweet tool it,ll whistle when you get there to top dead center that is
