Happy Easter All!
Finally got the Ambo back in the garage. My mechanic friend has her
running like a top! She runs awesome and absolutely growls! Worth the
LONG WAIT! I had stopped over the other day to refill the forks, but he
had already done so, and used auto trans fluid. I was going to use 90wt
gear oil after getting some feedback the other day, but it was too late.
My question is, how soft are these suspensions? She seemed really
bouncy, sort of pogo stick like. The front never bottomed out or
anything, just was real bouncy. Perhaps I should check the setting on
the rear shocks to make sure they are not too stiff which may be causing
the pogo stick effect. Other wise, I have work cut out getting her all
cleaned up again, she went to my buddies shop shining like new and came
out dusty, a little greasy, and with some surface rust on some old
chrome parts as a result of gettinf wet and sitting for so long.
Have a great day all!
