I have fitted the LOF one, which is even lighter, than that one. But if you are still using the linear spring then you will find the std in the blue bag spring a mahoosive improvement and your left leg will thank you.

Cheers

Can’t see why they got rid of it as it seems to be fitted to earlier models

I was not sure why either, but it was only when I jumped in a friends 110 5 years ago and wondered what was wrong with mine , when I found the difference.

LOF, is better, but not as much of a difference as the change you are about to do. IMHO. Be prepared for a few swear words when you fit it.

just fitted it put the 3 plastics in then hooked it in the two top holes wedged pedal to the floor then hooked it in the centre slot with a pair of vise grips job done n very happy with difference

Do you normally leave the top spring in place or remove it after doing this mod?

Started on the injector loom, copper washers and rocker gasket replacement tonight

Lobes look good

Oil in loom- reason for replacing

Washer look good but will replace any way

That’s all for now

Found a local garage to wax oil it for me for a good price so just ordering some dinitrol !

Spent good couple hours steam cleaning and wire brushing the chassis this sat , so she’s good to have her coat of dinitrol on the out side and inside of the chassis ready to repel winters worst
