You know, when Marzocchis were proper but all the little bolts fell out. Need one for the compression adjuster on 06 Z1's. Anyone know what can be used in its place thats the same size? Windwave/ukbikestore dont have any instock.

What about using the one off the hose guide?

Is it just a grubscrew?

Give us a rough idea of size and I'll see what I've got floating about.

Is it a top cap adjuster screw? I have some junk broken Z1s I could steal one off. Email me.

If its the tiny one from the bottom of the fork leg it appears to be the same size as an elctrical screw - the type that holds switches to the back boxes. 3mm ish accross the threads.

I have lost that screw and the knob off my Z1s - but as I never fiddled with it I have ignored it but one of those screws seems to fit the thread

I gave up fitting them- you can adjust the forks with the red adjuster minus the screw. then pop it off, and put it somewhere safe.

Did Windwave give an eta for new stock?

Sorry - just double checked - its not an electrical screw - that was a rougue one in my electrics box

Its M3 99% sure - I have a box of m3 bolts and they fit the thread

Waiting for my compression adjuster to be delivered as it will be lying in the undergrowth somewhere on Cannock Chase along with the shitty little screw.

Its this, no eta as yet. [url] http://www.ukbikestore.co.uk/product/-1/520278/marzocchi-adjuster-screw.html [/url]

thanks TJ, will try that. It'll be superglued in place once I find something that fits.
