MMMMM......Bilsteins!

[Hurdy]

A present arrived this morning....My Bilstein B16 PSS10's


Pic of simple damping adjustment setting for fronts

and same for the rears

Look where they tested during development 


Roll on Wednesday and fitment with the TT wishbones

Anyone know where I can get these fully corner weighted?

They look lovely John, very trick adjusters, 
I think a good coat of something needs putting on them adjusters before the winter eats them though

Thanks for the tip Gaz. I wondered about corrosion resistance. The body is fine but the anodised bits could be susceptable over time.

Yes, just a coat of vaseline or similar would help, you could clean off when adjusting then re-apply

Look great John - preparation for the Ring is coming together 

[Hurdy]

Cheers guys. Didn't even know they'd tested them on the 'ring.

If they know their way around already I can just sit back and relax

Bilstein have got a big showroom in the paddock, nice fellas in there too, helped me out with some tyres a few trips back.

Go in and speak to them, they'll give you some tips on settings for sure.

That's great to know ....I'm assuming they speak English though

[tony_danza]

A hell of a lot better than I speak German!!

Very nice mate, but I would do as others say and put some corrosion protection around the adjusters. I find Vaseline would be too light for use in our over salted roads 

I would personally use some Copper Grease for this job as it would provide greater protection than vaseline.

[matty_jetta]

I used a combination of copper grease and motorcycle chain lube on mine, seems to be providing good protection so far!
