Title: Risse service guide
Post by: Spokes on November 13, 2016, 12:59:07 pm

The Astro 5 on my 857 has developed a clunk. Has anyone got a copy of the Risse service guide that was one here some time ago. I lost mine when my old computer died. The guide has instructions on how to strip and rebuild a Risse shock an can anyone remember what grade oil is best for them? If I remember correctly Shovelon rebuilt his a few years back?

Cheers Col. Funny enough i went on the Risse site 10mins after posting this and found those two. I'm looking into getting hold of or making the split clamps and ring spanner.
