Hi I have a leaking rear damper and want to replace it and intend using sae 40 oil. Is it true that these original dampers are adjustable? If so can someone tell me how please

Thanks

The dampers are non adjustable. SAE30 or 40 is the best oil to use. There was a thread here with the address of the people who recondition them for ESM. http://www.mmoc.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=65458
If your feeling adventurous here is the link to how I repaired mine at home. http://www.mmoc.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f= ... per+repair
