5/8" from top of triple clamp to top of fork tube.My KYB's only have two lines. What is your measurement from the top of the fork (not fork cap)?
As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.
When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.
Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.
Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.
Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.
Thanks for your patience and support!

On the topic of chains... I've always run O-ring chains. I'm not Mike Lafferty, and don't know if I can feel the difference from the seat, but perhaps it has a bigger impact on the small bore. You guys prefer O-ring or non O-ring?
I'm a perfectionist, and still a fan of the Scalvini. I also have fab skills, so this isn't a big deal really, considering the pipe flat rips. 90% of the mess was a result of the OEM Husky silencer....Thanks for posting this! I was on the verge of buying a Scalvini for my Son's MX bike. NO FREAKIN' WAY would I plunk down that kind of cash for a swiss cheese pipe! Holy cripes!What a piece of shit!
There is no measureable amount of power loss using a warmed up Oring / Xring Chain over a non Oring chain.On the topic of chains... I've always run O-ring chains.

3rd line just showing. turns great and no head-shake at speed. Make sure you adjust the steering stops,from the factory mine were set too far out and made tight turns a little tricky.My bike has the 50mm 'zoke forks and yours has the kayaba forks so the marks may not be comparable.

Worked perfectly actually. What was the issue with yours? The Scalvini line up on each end better than any pipe I've ever owned, yet was the hardest by far to put on, as it takes a magician to get it wrapped around the frame rail. Did you find the same?
Not sure what you mean by air gap,my oil height is stock.Whats your air gap?
