  • Front suspensions for RE 350 Electra 2002 model

    Hi Guys,

    Suspensions for my 2002 RE 350 Electra have totally worn out and I am looking to replace them with good one. One mechanic told me that if new suspensions have to be fitted to my model, the fixing place on the top of the skull (not sure if that is what it is called ) will have to be modified by some CNC job.

    So have few questions -

    . Have anyone here done something like this?
    . Will this modification leave chance for fitting disk breaks in future?
    . Does the color on the skull get spoiled?
    . Any good place in Pune which might suggest?

    Thanks

      Guys I got it done at Sadguru Service Center, near Sinhagad Road.

      . They put New Standard RE's front suspension set (this one doesn't have scope to fit disk brake), cost around Rs.5500/- (the cone set were totally damaged so additional Rs.800/- something)
      . Did a very minor unnoticeable change near the top, i.e. increase the diameter just a little bit at the place where the suspensions fit.

      Overall it cost me Rs.7100/- including labour.

      Hope this is helpful for someone needing to do similar stuff.
