DGood morning. I would like to buy adjusting washers for the oil pistons responsible for optimal operation of the front suspension, adapted to the weight of the rider, luggage and possibly the second person on the saddle. I have Therefore, the question is whether there is anyone on the forum who deals with this and can possibly help me with the purchase and installation instructions appropriate to the operating conditions. Thank you for your answers and I apologize
 
DThanks and I understand that you can definitely buy and replace everything with better ones somewhere, theoretically. But I currently have two and a half suspension legs (5 complete pipes bought second-hand) I would like to individually and not too many coins again:( experiment with the settings of washers of different thicknesses, diameters and their number, because I read on the forum "grissoghetto" if I remember correctly that OEM, i.e. the Mandello factory, failed at the production stage by using the wrong quantity and quality of the same washers, which determine the nature of rebound and adjustment of compression and the entire oil flow. therefore. By using a different oil specification, e.g. with a much lower viscosity and its quantity, you can achieve an infinite number of settings adjustments. My question was only related to these washers

You experiment environment puts you in the lead for this development. That is to say, you will be conducting your own experiments on these settings. I do recommend keeping a journal of every washer and oil viscosity with the results so that in the future you can help others with this.
 
Twoje środowisko eksperymentalne stawia Cię na czele tego rozwoju. Oznacza to, że będziesz przeprowadzał własne eksperymenty na tych ustawieniach. Polecam prowadzić dziennik każdej myjki i lepkości oleju z wynikami, aby w przyszłości móc pomóc innym.
W Wow, thank you for your trust, but I have no such aspirations. Nevertheless, I will take notes, even if only for my own needs. Best regards to the group of fans of the Guzzi brand and all others, even Harley
