[QUOTE="BSWIFT, post: 1228121, member: 16802"] I got some parts ordered for the SY250 and started installing them with the help of Ron Lee, factory Beta rider. He showed me how to disassemble the Paolia forks and what to look for when reassembling them. He made a cool tool for setting your oil level. He used a brass tube, a small collar with a set screw, tubing, and a syringe. I've used the tubing and syringe trick but his tool would set on top of the fork tube and was indexed for easy adjustment. Ron is a nice guy. Like lots of off road bike riders, he'll do just about anything for fellow enthusiasts. As a 5 time National Trials Champion, he's met lots of industry pros and factory folks. I've got a rear tire to put on and rear brakes and the SY will be ready for some time on the trail. I've got other minor repairs to do but I'll do them as the funds become available. I'm beginning to think that SCORPA stands for Some Costs OverRide Possible Appreciation. $86 for EACH fork seal, retail! Ron got them for me at cost, $56 each. Bearings run $46 each and I won't even mention the cost of Plastic! I never thought it would be cheap but DAAMMMN! [/QUOTE]
