Bring your B4 and that will be more than good enough.

You could always moove all of youre Shocks from youre Mad Rat (Aswell as the hardware, bushings ect) onto youre B4?

Dazzler · #**104** 13-09-2009

Forget the BRCA for now - Get to the club and get the advice and help. You keep putting non existant obsticals in your way. Even if you don't race, you'll learn a lot. To be honest, you can learn a whole lot more from people when you are not actually racing as you have more time to watch, ask questions & LISTEN!

Are the B4 shocks that wasted??? You can get rebuild kits for them which stop them leaking too. If there is a shop on site at the race they will 95% surely have the rebuild kits or at least a set of o-rings.

Why not go race with what you have and ask around if anyone has a set of shocks spare at the race which they would be willing to let go of cheap.

NeilD · #**110** 13-09-2009

A rebuild on the shocks would most likely be ok, new seals ect.

On the AE shocks!!

Dazzler · #**115** 13-09-2009

So have you actually got a B4 at the moment? I'm getting a bit confused here

,
Why are you still on about buying - Your Las will be divorcing you at this rate. Mind you, then you can wear the trousers and buy what you like.

I don't believe nobody couldn't help you with a B4.

Another good reason to get to a club - You're buying things you haven't seen by the sound of it, and frankly, probably being ripped off. Club racers are regularly trading stuff (they do at my club) and you can pick up some great stuff. But before you ask, nobody at our club has any B4 shocks for sale.

Si Coe · #**120** 13-09-2009

He hasn't actually got the B4 yet because I'm still working on it. But it should be ready to race when I'm done. A few tweaks for your track of course, but otherwise fine.
What tyres will it need for Batley indoors?

As for the shocks - You got a set of cheap B4 shocks but they don't work right? Sounds like the shaft is bent if it doesn't move. Well new shafts are cheaper than whole new shocks, indeed the most expensive part of those B4 shocks are the bodies themselves and I doubt they are wrecked. But getting shocks right is an art and not something you can describe over the net. Get down to a club meet and they'll get it sorted. Don't bother going to race, just go for the help. Lots of new guys at Bury today doing just that.
