I am not far from the Sunshine Mini event approx. 2 hours. So that may save some the cost of shipping since the USPS rates are now extremely high.

Sirscoop, in my post i said i was interested in the used donut and shock absorber it was a valid post. , not until alex and jeg jumped in the picture and derail the topic, you and everybody can review this thread.  Jeg is known for derailng and steering the thread. Even in other forums that he's in. So please just ignore him, he's fond of making up stories to put somebody down and level himself up.. Tsk tsk poor fellow...

now back to the topic..

I'm sorry, SirCoop, but I can't resist...

 

Hey Tony - New dampers and used rubber cones won't help with your mini's suspension bump stop issues. 

By the way, what makes you think anyone would send anything to you?  You're rude, crude and insulting.  The attached image will serve to refresh your memory as to your response when a board member needed a gear lever. 

Then there's this:

 
 

What's with calling boardmember GadgetGav 'GadgetGay'?

And refer to spark plug color chart online for your guide.  If you hear noise in the engine or feel roughness in idle, time to adjust the effin valves.  Good luck!!

it's 9:30pm and im eating oatmeal + chocolate , i understand here in america you call it Poridge.

I feel bad for SirCoop that you've polluted his thread with your insincere request and I pity anyone who wants to try to help you.
