sredish Posted May 23, 2004 Report Share Posted May 23, 2004 (edited) That valve is there to repressurize with Nitrogen should it lose pressure. Some examples of why it'd lose pressure are rebuilding, or, like my dumbass, try to loosen a part and let some pressure out. My Elkas require 150lbs of Nitrogen to function the way they were designed. Very simple, but that's it, to pressurize with Nitrogen.

nater006 Posted May 23, 2004 Report Share Posted May 23, 2004 Stealerships should be able to pump 'em back up after a rebuild. Ours here has a nitrogen tank and does them, at least. Or you can just be like my buddy and figure that air is like 71% nitrogen.. RM250 rear shock hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
