italjetfan Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 Hello all!! Been doing some work on my "spare" Italjet 350 (don't all throw oranges at me at once!!), and I was pleased to see it has a pair of brand new Betor shocks, with the air valve. The air valve is at the top (by the seat), but the Betor stickers are upside down. Does this mean they are on upside down, or does it not matter? Are there any other Italjet riders on the forum? Help appreciated. Mnay thanks, Tommo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 They are not air valves for starters..........GAZ so dont go poking a screwdriver in the valves to see what happens..............They work both ways so fit them as you like, but, and its coplicated if you do loose damping in the upside down sense they should work (giving damping in the return)in the normal mounting position. Now you know a lot more about your shocks, eh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
