What is the procedure to disable, or, to modify the plunger in the 1800 anti-dive system?
Any application of the brakes applies the anti-dive. Not just hard braking.Allen H. said:Just curious--how does disabiling the anti-dive affect the handling? Seems to me the only time that mine comes in to play is when I am braking hard for whatever reason. Or do I not have enought miles yet on my Wing (8,000) for it to be an issue yet? Inquiring minds want to know.
Three M4 washers between the ainti dive halves, fit better than the SAE washer sizes.tom cohoon said:What is the procedure to disable, or, to modify the plunger in the 1800 anti-dive system?

What is recommended if your ADV is sticking? (as a temporary fix before rebuilding)Cal-D said:You can use a U shaped shim between .030 and .035, just back off the top nut (bleeder holder) two turns and slip it in and re-tighen the nut. No bleeding required. That assumes your anti-dive is working correctly and not sticking.
A shim between the two halves will limit the amount the anti-dive plunger depresses the valve thereby reducing the function of the anti-dive. The shim under the bleeder nut is the better way.

Speaking of rebuilding the ADV Where the heck can I find the friggin O-Rings for the rebuild??? That's the only thing holding me up at this pont, and I've scoured the internet and can't find them. (except in bulk)http://www.gl1800riders.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=68036
