Hi all,
Well my Pike 426's have just suffered the dreaded hydrolock, now I'm only getting about 2 inches of travel. My question is, has anyone tackled fixing this issue themselves ? Is it just a matter of pulling the forks apart and removing oil from lower/replacing the faulty seals in the Motion Control cartridge ? How easy is this to do, I normally do all the work on my bikes, never had to take anything into a shop to fix, forks are pretty much the only thing I've never taken apart to service. Just after some comments from people that have tackled this themselves.
Cheers
Mark
