Re: Carbone Rear Shock
Anybody got any opinions / reviews on the Carbone Italian rear shock absorber? They do two types: standard and sport.

Re: When POR15 goes wrong.............
Not really that visible inside - seems to be a fair size lump.I have tried breaking it up with a large screwdriver, but concious of damaging the tank.

When POR15 goes wrong.............
Have recently had a mid range tank powder coated, decided I'd seal the tank as well with POR15.Anyway didn't go to plan, whatever I did it went t*ts up.The sealant was coming off after it had dried for 5 days in a film, but the main thing is there's a lump of the stuff left in the tank.I'm not blami...

Re: Heidenau, , K61 Tyre
I'm on the look out for new tyres for my rally/all year round ride, but I've got tubeless on it so 1200 miles max would rule these out. Will probably try Scootsmart next time. Shame about the 365s, if anyone does remember the re-branded name please update this post http://www.scooterlab.uk/compulso...
