    Hi' I've got an 09 450TE and an trying to get fork air bleeders. Any one know where I can get them?My local dealer has drawn a blank.
    Also has any one fitted the race rear light without drilling the rear plastics?
    I would like to fit it but don't want to drill new plastics.
    Thanks.

    Call Kelly at Mororsportz I know they sell some (air bleeders) they are also a sponsor on this site.

    I've just suggested a source for the bleeders in the UK in reply to the same question in this thread: http://www.cafehusky.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5635

    It would be great to support Kelly and I'm all for that, but for such a small item this way would avoid shipping costs from the US and having to deal with those nice men at Her Majesty's Customs & Revenue (or whatever they're calling themselves today)!

    Course, our mailmen are just about to go on strike so anything coming via Royal Mail won't be a arriving in a hurry (which includes most UK mail and a lot of packages from the US). :censored:

    The bleeders in 08 were for Zokes. Aren't the new ones KYB.?

    And I think some KTM bleeders were used on the Zokes.

    You are correct petem I just didn't catch the fact he lived across the pond.

    I believe the 2010 models have Kayaba forks but my '09 TE450 certainly has the Zokes (i.e. Marzocchi Shiver forks) and unless I've misunderstood something novice says his bike is also an '09 TE450 so I have to assume he has the same forks as me, which the bleeders I mentioned do fit. Easily checked - if the forks are Kayabas then he may indeed need different bleeders to the ones I suggested.

    I only noticed because I've seen several of novice's posts in the other thread and the "UK" caught my eye as there aren't too many of us! :D
