    Yea , that is the issue with Mass Production , sometimes things get missed because the testing is only random , instead of every piece , hopefully they will do you right , and you can get back to riding

    What is the issue with the old cylinder ?? , usually they wear pretty well

    Yea.. Tell me about it... :lol:

    I work with third party quality control.... mass production can save or kille a company....


    the old cylinder was pitted and scorred due to poor mainanance, bought this bike and a cr250 1993 in a package deal knowing it needed TLC...

    now i just got to find a top nut for the right fork due to a broken compression screw... after that she is as good as new :D

    Any of your local suspension shops should have a few used ones (or even new)laying around, so start by checking with them
