Has anyone had experience building landing gear from motorcycle forks? ------------------------------------------------------ Dear Lou, Sure. Lotsa folks. See Roger Mann's RW-19 for a nice example of a long-travel landing gear. He uses the oleo-pneumatic element off a big dirt bike, combined with a stiffer after-market spring. Gives him something like 10" of travel and you really have to see one of his landings to believe it. (The RW-19 and RW-20 are 2-place clones of the Storch.) -R.S.Hoover
