1979/ 1980 390 OR

I picked this bike up a couple of weeks ago and the first thing it needs is a suspension rebuild. I took it over to Nick at Pro Valve in Costa Mesa. Got lucky and the internals are in really good shape, we're looking for a rebuild kit for the Ohlins. Unfortunately Ohlins is closed in North Carolina due to the storms back there. We're also looking for some heavier springs for the shocks as well. The forks are full of rust but they cleaned up really well and Nick was lucky enough to buy a bunch of White Bros parts after they closed up shop. We found a pair of new seals and sliders.

Is anybody repopping these hoses?

great stuff

Philip at Husqvarna-parts.com,has the Ohlins rebuild kits,parts and springs you need.The remote hoses use BSPT British Standard Pipe Thread ends,not NPT or straight pipe that is common here in the U.S.

Thanks 390 Dave!!

Unfortunately he doesn't carry the hoses I need, and Jerry from Ohlins is telling me Craig at Husky Club carries them. But Craig says he doesn't sell parts.

The BSPT fittings and braided hose are available from Goodridge,they have distributors here in the USA.

Fantastic Info! thanks!!!

contact Drew at W.E.R. (works enduro rider) He should be able to get you what you need. He did a great job on my 79 ohlins.

We ended up just using the old hoses, I'll post pics later.
