Before the increased vent and moving the oil cooler position oil temp at a constant 90mph was 91-93 degrees.

With the mods at the same speed yesterday early morning at a similar outside temp and same speed the oil temperature was 10 degrees lower!

Hopefully on track this will be to an advantage in keeping the oil temperature in a good place rather then 115 degrees!

Really bad clonking from rears.

They're all packed up ready to return.

Not a happy bunny.

So what causes such a knocking within the shock then? That Shirley must now be the question after months of anticipation as to what the problem was.

Monos went back for them to investigate the constant rattle, (Nitrons are silent apart for the new clonking).

Actually I must chase them up as they've had them for over a fortnight and gone quiet.

Do you know what spring rates your running Anthony? I've got new pro's and have paperwork saying 500lbs front and 400lbs rears but infact my fronts are 400lbs I'm not sure what the rears are now until Ive pulled them! Rather odd!
