Hi all can I ask for a bit more help.I'm all ready to do the piston and even bought the on line manual but i'm still not sure about the kip activator rod, when I undo it and then do it up again where do I support it I was told that you pull the rubber boot back and fine a flat section on the rod tube about half way down where you need to hold it with grips, but the manual shows you supporting it with a spanner near the KIP valve head.
Can some one be kind I tell me which one is right.
Thanks I hate to ask and look dum but I dont want to break any thing.
Thanks Jono

Been riding off road for 10 years still finding out how best to do it.Riden a DR125 then a DT125R then a DR125 then DRZ400 then XR250 then a TE610 now I hope that I have found the best a KDX220 just to add the KDX has gone now riding a WR426 which I love and is so much better than the KDX.
