Hi all, I am after some very thin washers to shim some stuff out, The washers what I am looking for are about the same thickness as a razor blade so a lot thinner than a std washer, I have seen them used on the std Honda mirrors at the pivoting point, would anyone know what type of washer they are and where to get them, Thanks in advance :thumbup:

Shim is keyword to be using as washers will be thicker. :thumbup:

The shims used for cartridge fork internals are very thin, usually 0.1 or 0.15mm, and available in a range of diameters. I have a heap from various fork rebuilds but I may be on the wrong side of the planet. Your local suspension tuner should be able to sell you some.

As Carl points out, it's all about the keyword, or words, something I used to struggle with finding myself :lol:
After loads of practice I think I'm getting better at it just :lol:

Indeed Pineapples and Marty are joined at the hip :lol:

eBay is so pants these days. It really has gone downhill over the years and too many businesses on there. Shame really.
