b40rt Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 Very nice, good to see. A lot of time and effort, how long did it take you ? Why change to the Betor forks, personally quite like the Marzochi's. Any parts left over ? Where did you get the chain guard, had to make one for mine.

sadrob Posted May 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 Hi Ross On and off it 's taken about a year, I have the Marzochi's all refurbed sat in my shed, I could'n't resist the Betor Forks brand new from Martin M I still have the Marzochi yokes, I am told they are better handling than the betor yokes Had to make the chain guard, its amazing how many parts you end up with once you start Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reginald Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 (edited) Great machine well done - would the betor triple clamps kick the rake out a bit? I have what I believe to be mar. Different triple clamps on mine and the bar clamp appears further forward. Edited May 23, 2011 by Reginald Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b40rt Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 The Marzocchi might give a more "modern " position ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
