Ashes Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 (edited) Hi all, this is my Onza Limey 20" i got in in the summer but sadly havent been able to ride as much as i would like to. However, the weathers picking up so hopefully will be out alot more. Thanks for taking the time to look, feedback on it would be nice with like performance wise or visually. Only thing that is different from the photo is i have a rear 04 maggie now rather than the 05 version. Thanks.

Im keen for a grind yeah oh never realised hosing made a "performance" difference, thought it was stronger splitting wise. Is standard hosing wider to allow the liquid inside to move more freely?
