Hey all,
I bought an ddr apache 138 bout a month ago and have been thrashing it ever since. Now before anyone says how crap it is or whatever i dont really care i really have not been kind to it and any problems are pretty much a result of that.
Now as for the problems:
The rivets on the exhaust rattled loose so i took it off and the stuffing that is usually inside the mufflers is non existant (hence the defening noise it puts out) where can i get this from?
The bushes on the rear shocky have flogged out i tried to remake them outa garden hose didnt work butwas worth a try. it alsojust recently pumped out a crap load of oil and lost the air i put in it but when i pulled it out the air went in and it stayed pressured?!?
Is it worth jus gettin a new one? and if i do where would i get one from? what types are best etc. i have started doing pretty decent jumps so it needs to be relatively strong i guess.
The front forks are constantly bottoming out and in the manual it says they are adjustable? had a good look but cant seem to see where i canadjust them? would i be beter off just replacing them? once again where should i get them and what should i get?
I have been reading about the site and have heard about these "aluminium oil slingers" what are they and where can i get one and what should i be asking for?
I think that is it for now any help is muchly appreciated also if anyone has any 2nd hand stuff regarding this post i am interested thanks.
