Umm.. oil in one side, and shock on the other.. I think.. I've gotta take apart my Judy XL's, that're basically the same, even colour, only twin crown.. and i'll clarify then

The Patriot suits it perfectly!
Not sure about the black spacers though...

Just had a scout round.. thought I had a fistful of red ones.. must have already given them away sorry lad..

Apart from the worn ano, that frame is in bloody good nick iirc... think I'd be half-tempted to get it painted in a candy red or something similar

Looks like a 98 fork. In which case it'll have a sealed damping cart in one lower leg and dummy shaft in the other lower leg. There will be two (primary and secondary) springs in each leg. The XL will be similar.

Thanks for the info John, Should make things less messy when I take them apart, I hope, IDB, I may get the frame re-sprayed, Or ano'd again, I have a Spray shop litterally 20 yards from my house, So that's no issue at all.

Re-ano is cha-ching I think lad . . . repaint would be my choice (or you could strip it back, shine it up, and have a tinted clearcoat straight over the shiny shiny )

Not surprising, it's a cracking colour

Not as rare as an unfaded 96 in Red Ano that's ball burnished first
