LM 2 Front Forks Question

[Dobermann]

Hello,

My LM2 has a different fork plugs then the bikes which pictures I've found on internet. I see the plugs usually have air valves on them, but my ones are different. Do you know what fork plugs are they. Here is a video of my bike. The plugs can be seen in at the very beginning of the video.

Are they some early LM2 forks? I am asking because I am considering FAC dampers. I am afraid that if I order dampers for LM2 they wont fit on my forks since they look not adjustable and they dont look like the 'standard' LM2 forks.

Thank you.

nice video, too bad it doesn't show more of the FORKS.

top caps look custom made to me.

Thank you, mate. Yes, I ment the plug bolts that are on top of the fork tubes. There are no air valves. The bike came like that from Germany.

I have a CX100, same as your LM II w/a SP motor.  It has plug caps w/a recessed hex bolt in the middle for the fork/shock cartridges.

Without taking them to bits you won't know what's going on but they ain't stock.

The caps with a Schraeder valve on top are almost certainly FAC dampers, a common aftermarket swap-out to replace the horrible Sebaceous originals.

That's funny since I have over 110K miles on my original `81 cartridges, even pulling a sidecar, and they still work just fine, IMHO..........or maybe I replaced them with the same kind and don't remember.  Did replace some cartridges but think those were on my `80 Convert. I had.

Looks like regular ol' Guzzi 35mm forks on 195mmm triples with some ( custom?) homemade caps. The camera action  goes to the rear of the bike too fast to highlight the forks . BTW , Mike, got your old race bike Marzocchi forks on my LM
