Replace the throttle pots and how does it repay me...?

[BGB autosport]

Changed the throttle pots this morning, checked the balancing too and all is spot on, go for a gentle warm up and all is well, smooth and running well, get out on the B roads and open it up.... it hits the power and the back end is of here, there and every where. Thought it was odd, it just didn’t feel right in the bends or when hard on the power, decided to steady up and drive it gently home expecting a shot bush or drop link, only to find a pool of oil in the garage. Looked underneath and the off side shock is covered in oil, did the bounce test and its all over the place on that side, so the shock has obviously died.

Im now on the look out for a pair of good rear shocks. If its not one thing its another!

It was all that extra power you put back.

Not sure about that!, It certainly pulls smoother low down and feels like it revs cleaner up top so there might be a little gain power wise.

One thing thats odd and i noticed it this morning too, is that its now hardly popping on decel.

I think they have a spell of winding you up before they let you off

Good luck finding shocks, Power have some good fitted prices if your thinking new
