Cheaper than getting your old ones fixed! Well close anyway.
i have just had my second set of forks refurbished , cost $500 or so, thats with new springs at $195, legs drilled with the extra 6mm hole, new bushes.

It would seem that after two sets desperately needing new bushes that it may be worth checking your own bushes as it appears that after 20 years they are stuffed!

Interesting decals, M1R on the back and Marzocchi on the side.

Both legs?
Do you have a pic or 2 of it?

in a previous posts about forks, there was a link to two sites from a poster

When ASR Performance went to rebuild the forks, he spoke to a company in Sydney as well that does this mod, its drilling a 6mm hole in each leg that allows the oil to return faster thereby reducing stiction, which he said is a major problem with these forks.

He also put 5w oil in compression leg and 10w in rebound leg, oil height I think was 165mm, plus heavier springs to suit my weight [std was ".75" now ".95" [I think!!], I am 80kg, and new bushes from BMW.

It was a mod that Ducati did to later bikes

Have anybody done this modificatin to Paso M1R forks? If have, then what was result? Would it be same in 750 and 907?
