[QUOTE="skipro3, post: 752403, member: 37632"] Thanks for the feedback acutemp! My riding bud, Doug,a much better mechanic that I, tried to install the gold valves in his KX 500 forks. They even included a 30+ minute video, so we thought, hey, I can do this! Then we started taking things apart. No where did the video mention about taking the rebound stack apart or all the special tools needed to do so. The compression stack was all that the video discussed. We should have read the instructions closer. Luckily, there is a fanchise of sorts for this system and one was within an hours drive of the house. $140 later for labor and the boingers were complete and ready to run. On top of the origional gold valve cost of $140+ I might add. Well worth it though, according to Doug. Placed 7th? (I think) in his class at the Little Piglett Enduro last weekend. So how difficult is it to change the rear shock to gold valve? What did it cost? Is it worth the price? How did you recharge the nitrogen? I have access to tanks of the stuff, BTW. I have the shop manuals and am a good enough mechanic to do all my own work but split cases, (never tried, so maybe? Na) and now rebuild rebound shim stacks on KX forks. Also, where did you find the info on the AS top end V.S. modified 36mm carb? 89kdx200rdr: 10oz flywheel weight from steahly. (I know you asked Wibby and not me, but you get my input anyway for attempted hijack) I don't think it comes in any other size. Wibby: I had a bad premonition that CC was going to a 4 Stroke but NOT red!!! Your his friend....time for an intervention. [/QUOTE]
