***My new Fox Float set-up***

[Hondarider22]

you should have gotten something with a motor. like a mo-ped

Wel I got a Fully moded Go-Ped.......................I was going to get a HINSON Clutch and a LT Swinger but i couldn't make up my mind.  Anyways I can get my HINSON & LT Swinger later in the racin season probably in the winter when I go in the B-Class. 

I dont know why a HINSON clutch is like $1,000??

u will be waiting more than that 

[53yfz450]

hahha yeah. your positive about that. i didnt even know you still rode.

[Alba450]

hahha yeah. your positive about that. i didnt even know you still rode.

I actually do


But Yes FOX's aren't the best cuz my rear shock is loosing air like a mofo..I have to hook my compressor everytime I ride.  I cant figure out whats wrong?

[53yfz450]

welcome to the world of AIR shocks. they are going to leak.

[Hondarider22]

my fronts leak about 5 psi every ride.....but i can ride them stiff or soft, so i pump them up once and let them go  i havnt checked them since we went to hardrock i think its about time 

[Alba450]

welcome to the world of AIR shocks. they are going to leak.

No Seriously they loose air?


No wonder I was bottoming out towards the end of my ride around the Beach........I should of known

[53yfz450]

yes they do.

[klutchbuster400]

Thats cool besim, I didnt know they made those for bikes, I hope youre into mountian biking too though or it was just another waste of cash

[Alba450]

Thanks.....And yea every morning I take out my bike and go to Peir 60 and just chill and just ride around and find stairs to ride down or kool riding spots.

[Alba450]

yes they do.

So how can I keep them from leaking soo quick?

[53yfz450]

how quick are we talking about.lol

[Alba450]

how quick are we talking about.lol

Like the rear goes feather soft in like 45 minutes of riding and if im hitting bih jumps and just rolling of stairs it will loose are faster.  SO is this normal right???  Just gotta buy me that hand pump thing and keep it with me

[53yfz450]

you mean to tell me it didnt come with the hand pump. you were using a compresser. maybee you blew the seals.

[Alba450]

Uh....................w00ter man......Cuz they told me the hand pump was $30 and I said WTF and said I didn't need it. 

So if I blew the seals im gunna take it in at Chainwheel Drive.  Cuz i got a 3 yr warranty any way.  And im gunna buy the hand pump.  Thanks Jake

[53yfz450]

well i know the ATV ones come with them. the shicks arent that big. im almost positive a compresser would blow the seals.

[#26YFZ]

ya bro the atv ones will go rock solid with a few pumps from the hand pump.  I can't imagine those being able to hold even half of what the atv ones do so the compressor would just destroy the seals

[Alba450]

OK........SO I basically screwed up my rear shock.  Im gunna have to take it in tommarow anyways cuz my hydraulic brakes arent working right.  So what should I tell them the shock it working wierd or something?  Oh yea this bike was a "TEST BIKE" as in costomers test drove it around the parking lot and stuff so could that be an excuse?

[53yfz450]

yeah just say it loses air.lol

[Alba450]

yeah just say it loses air.lol

Yea I knew that..duh


But when the seals blow that will be a internal defect correct so they wouldn't find out whats wrong unless they open it up(their not) and I might get a new shock(i hope)

why don't you do the stand up thing, admit you never read the instructions and broke it yourself instead of trying to scam the company

[UncleRico]

WTF? That would be the most UN AMERICAN thing he could do.

Don't listen to him Alba...here's what you want to do...

1) Speak to the manager and provide him with faulty intelligence.
2) Show up at the dealership dressed in a flight suit with a MISSION ACCOMPLISHED BANNER flying from your truck that way he thinks YOU were right before you even begin to speak.
3) If he balks, accuse him of having weapons of mass destruction, and ask him why he and his dealership don't support the troops in Iraq.

These simple steps have been followed and field tested.

You can't go wrong.

"The Decider"

Actually, I would agree with guy I quoted, but I've seen some bedhind the scenes stuff at Dealerships and how they screw the customer over so...I guess all's fair in love and motorcycle service.

Well, here is a real set of "Floats" waiting to go on my quad.
The motor quit the week after I ordered them. Suxor for me!

I might just get a new quad this weekend and swap the motor
and electrics to my old quad. Decisions, decisions! ! !

Be cool,
Dan

In case someone is wondering... my old quad does not look that old.
I had just replaced the frame a month before the motor quit! ! !
