HELP! hi guys iam new to this forum as i have ran across it on the web(of course lol). i was seaching some info on FOURNALES PAN CRUISE shocks and through my search(oh by the way iam from alabama in the USA)the most info i have found on these were on your forum discussion &alot of which was helpful but need more info please. i had the pleasure of releiving some rich dude of a trailer queen of which it no longer is thanks to alot of hard riding and hard living which both seem to be a pleasure of mine as i cant seem to find the brakes on life nor iam i looking it.anyway the bike has pan cruise shocks on which i know nothing about. i like the ride &being able to control the highth or low ride in my case. my buddy that builds customs is trying to get me to dump the panz but iam not to sure iam willing as i really like them!i just not sure how many people over here know too much about panz ! OK QUESTION , like i said earlier i ride low(front&back) and i left the road one night&broke a schrader valve&pretty sure i've lost oil out of the one. and they may possible need rebuilding,is this something i can do or a friend that is a airplane mech?if so or not how expensive is it going to be? and what i've read here on your forum they maybe worth it. these where purchased around 1995 but didnt have many miles on it till i purchased it in 1999& rode it til 2006 & the bike had to sit for 4 years & i have read that panz sitting is'nt good on the seals. sorry this was so long but REALLY hope someone can help cause iam trying to get my sled back on the road & iam iam on the start of a rebuild,thanks all!!

hi mates thanks for the info on the pancruise (4nales),i have only been on your site for 2 days now and some of you guys & gals are halarious! gives a brother a laugh as i dont do many forums or sites of the sort but use these things(pc) for a sorce.but i know when i first got on i landed on a topic or forum on here that had a shit load of info on the 4nales pan cruise,alot of discussion,dont get me wrong i appreciate the imput i got but i was looking for more info on them as i have done some research and I THINK that they are imported from france to both our countries but the most info i have got so far was off HD FORUMS AUSTRALIA for sure but i do think it dated back some years.but it seems that more of you mates are running them over there than here.iam thinking after a forum that i read that it may have something to do with the roads over there and these shochs are working better for you mates than here as i understand our roads may(?)be better. so sorry to here ,as it sounds like your roaads are as rough & messed up as our GOVERMENT if thats what you want to call this WORLD DOMINANATION that we live in(USA TO START) THAT SHOULD GIVE govy something to look at me once again for ayy?thanks all!! shiny side up even on the renolds wrap lolGR8TFULYDED
hey...iv run em on me Evo for years....scored em s/h off US ebay...never had to rebuild em yet, tho have read they are easy enuf to do if need be & seals are obtainable thru good bearing / seal outlet....they have proven to be a good robust suspension, tho iv found getting correct intial air ratio setup is a pain in th butt...especially from where they are mounted....often thought about linking th ride height pair & dampening to have just two, more accessible valves mounted maybe under th seat or sumin....or get real ritzy & add a compressor, as th new model Pan Cruise...
maybe you could contact (Thundertech WA) where this guy in WA has had his pan cruise shocks fitted & adjusted...
