duggan Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Heard that there might be a new DID style back wheel and a revision on the failing rear shock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benbeta23 Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 I think the DID wheel is going to be a 2011 feature, Also I think there is going to be improvements on the clutch (2T), and on the rear shock, and most probably a new colour scheme.

dan williams Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Does that mean I can stop filing my friends' clutch plates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liviob Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Why do the shocks fail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzralphy Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 They fail because some of them have no damping. If you can turn your rear shock rebound damper in all the way in, and the damping doesn't slow ..... it has failed. Unfortunately the rear shocks don't appear to be rebuildable. PS. You need rebound damping for traction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liviob Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 When i first got my 09 290 evo. The rebound damping adjuster on the rear shock had alot of friction. It was hard to turn and It broke off after a few turns. I think it was cross threaded when it was first assembled. The Importer replaced it under warranty. I believe the shock is rebuildable. I was able to open my Sachs shock to change the oil. It's a pretty easy job. Someone with mechanical savy and some basic shop tools could do it. A shrader valve must be installed to service the shock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feetdown Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Where are you getting this info from, or is this all just wishful hoping as I understand the rear shock was only a problem on a small number of bikes, Trials clutches have always been a sticking point (no pun intended) and everyone wants a DID rim but the price doesn't equate on a production bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allegedly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
