Hey Fatboy, cheers for your response mate. These aren't your usual DU bushing. There is an elastomer type plastic bushing that pushes directly into the shock eyelet, and the alu spacers/hardware presses straight into it. Might be a case of sourcing the material, and fabricating my own.

Heya Beeds, did you end up getting this sorted mate?

Did you have any luck at all Bullpup? I'm in the same boat as of recently. Both my 1999 SV2000 rear shock bushes are shot. I've had a bit of a hunt around, but no luck so far here in Australia.

I think this might be the issue! I'll dissect it and see what I find... I'm guessing you replaced the damper unit mate?

The pressure doesn't ramp up as if it's blocked at the valve - I'm adding what feels like the correct pressure. I have a feeling Vesatoro is on the money. Yep, great forks when they work - I had a Super V900 years ago.

Heya y'all. I picked up an SV2000 recently, and managed to unstick the Headshok after she was sitting for some time. The problem I'm having is when I add pressure to it, it seems to only get a fraction of what I'm putting in - 300psi feels like 30psi. Has anyone had this issue before?

So I’ve stripped the paint off this thing now, and lo and behold there’s a serial. It says; BY JKF 1988 - 10 - Could it be the French builder JKF (Jean-Francois Kaufmann)?

No I didn't. It's still a mystery!

No, I can't figure out the original colour unfortunately.

It's had a respray, so that throws things off a tad. The steerer is 1 1/8". I appreciate the insights guys - thank you!

Here 'tis for your perusal.

Thanks joglo, although unfortunately this frame was built up with the previous owners choice of random parts.

Hi all. I’ve recently picked up a mid 90s Grizzly, and have been trying to work out the exact build date. The serial is - LYS6H01423 Does anybody here know how to translate this? Cheers!

I didn’t think of Barracuda (I haven’t thought of that brand for 20 years!), and had a look but all their designs are pretty conventional. It DOES look as though this mystery frame has had a spray at some point. It’s possible that it used to be white?? Definitely not a Titanal. This mystery...

No, not an Iron Horse, but she's a horse made of iron (well, probably cromoly). I recieved a response from Modolo, after I emailed them to see if the Modolo sticker was a clue; ------ Hello, For what I remember, there was only a brief time when there was a collaboration with a designer that...

Ok, here ya go XTSTIMAN!

Ahh yes, it's Modolo for sure. It looked familiar, but I couldn't for the life of me recall. Thanks for the good pick up guys! I've just had a bit of a google image search, and come up with zip/zero/zilch as far as anything even close to this frame. Modolo only manufacture components as far as...

Ok...I now have the bike in my posession, and the only sticker on the frame is this. Does anyone have any idea what this brand of tubing or possibly even bike brand?

My Shogun Prarie Breaker has a very GT situation going on, but this thing...it's more Iron Horse.
