contd :- -2- In order to get reasonable riding at low speeds together with adequate damping for fast touring, we are running hydraulics with an increased viscosity factor pract- ically unaffected by change of oil temperature. We have a complete set on 12-EX. The results so far are encouraging. We are trying them on the rear of EAC. 7. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/W.A. Robotham. | ||
