[QUOTE="Chris Launders, post: 98666, member: 2010"] Hi Greg, I think my friend has the 36lb springs but I'm not sure, and the bearing type AVO, having tried it it's much the same as my twin but possibly fractionally stiffer as the damper has less weight to control. I liked the Armstrong damper when doing the damper testing but as you say they don't make them any more, the original AVO (for the standard set up) gives virtually no control when used with your bearing conversion that's why there's a special AVO to go with it. I had just wondered if there would be enough damping in a standard type AVO for a single with the bearing conversion but he says there isn't. Chris. [/QUOTE]
