Hello everybody... Despite I have removed the rubber seals of my Telesco shock absorbers, they are too reactive, without any movement absorption, as if the springs were the only part working, especially for the return. It destabilizes the bike! Here attached pictures of this Telesco model (Scrambler Ducati-Mototrans of course) without its rubber protection. Is there a solution to make them more gradual?

Replace them with new ones!

Thank you but if I posted my question, it is in order to avoid that Oil is missing ? Seals to be removed? What is wrong in my shock absorbers? My fealling is that it is possible to repear it...

Ola Rocla,

The usual reason for the rear shock absorbers to fail is that the oil has leaked out, allowing the rear of the bike to pogo (sorry I can't think of another word in English!) in other words, move up and down too fast and wallow. You can replace the seals and fill the units with new oil, but the damper rods must not be rusty or pitted or the new seals will be damaged.

Good luck,

Colin

Many thanks Duccout! How to fill oil?

Bonjour Rocla,
Cette question semble être une répétition de votre requête du jeu 26 septembre 2013 à 8h19. http://motoscrubs.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1535 À ce moment-là, il semble que les pièces de rechange pour la remise à neuf de vos amortisseurs arrière Telesco n'étaient pas disponibles! Avec le temps, je doute que vous trouviez des pièces de rechange 7 ans plus tard. Je suggérerais qu'au lieu d'essayer de conduire une moto pogo, un nouvel ensemble d'amortisseurs serait les choses à acheter.

Esta pregunta parece ser una repetición de su consulta del jueves 26 de septiembre de 2013 a las 8:19 a. M. http://motoscrubs.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1535 ¡En ese momento parece que no había repuestos disponibles para renovar sus amortiguadores traseros Telesco! Con el paso del tiempo dudo que vayas a encontrar repuestos 7 años después. Sugeriría que en lugar de intentar montar una motocicleta pogoing, lo mejor sería comprar un nuevo juego de amortiguadores.

This question appears to be a repeat of your query from Thu Sep 26, 2013 8:19 am. http://motoscrubs.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1535 At that time it appears that spare parts for refurbishing your Telesco rear shock absorbers were not available! With the passage of time I doubt that you are going to find spare parts 7 years later. I would suggest that instead of trying to ride a pogoing motorcycle a new set of shock absorbers would be the things to purchase.

Wot he said!

Hello Themoudie,

Thank you for your reply. My resquest is the same than the previous one but since it, I changed the rubber seals. With no effect. I don't know where and if I have to fill oil into the shock absorber. Maybe it is the solution but I didn't see any place to fill the oil. Maybe once it was dismounted, it is impossible ? Of course I can remove the absobers with brand new ones, unless it is easy to fix them.

Bonjour Rocla,

Moi aussi, n'ayant aucune expérience des unités de suspension arrière Telesco et ne sais pas si elles sont reconstructibles. Cependant, le lien suivant est vers un détaillant espagnol de pièces de rechange qui fait de la publicité et vend sur eBay, qui pourra peut-être vous conseiller. Je n'ai aucune expérience de ce détaillant! https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/sparepartsforall-75
J'espère que cela vous aidera à régler quelque chose.

Yo también, no tengo experiencia con las unidades de suspensión trasera Telesco y no sé si son reconstruibles. Sin embargo, el siguiente enlace es para un minorista de repuestos español que anuncia y vende en eBay, quien puede asesorarlo. ¡No tengo experiencia con este minorista! https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/sparepartsforall-75
Espero que esto te ayude a resolver algo.

I too, having no experience of Telesco rear suspension units and do not know if they are rebuildable. However, the following link is to a Spanish spares retailer who advertises and sells on eBay, who may be able to advise you. I have no experience of this retailer! https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/sparepartsforall-75

I hope this helps you sort something out.

Bonne santé, Buena salud, Good health, Bill

Jon will know the answer if he checks in here, but I'm guessing repairs are not easy, given the age and possible corrosion of the dampers.
