for marzocchi to service a fork (in their shops, not including shipping time)?

i dont know how long it would take them but a full strip down of a fork and maybe change the seals would take an hour at the most.

call them and ask.

it also depends if it's peak season too

Yep.

The actual service will take no time at all like, dhkid said, but the time it has to wait in line for the billion other forks is what may take a while.

If you can, wait untill after the season. I got mine back after 2 months last year

or if you're in Whistler...

wow, two months! that would really suck, because i only got to ride the thing for 2 days before i had to send it in!!

what was wrong with it? it may have been something you could have serviced yourself. did you top it off with oil when you first got it?

 

[dirt-dart]

its the new 66 sl ata and it was leaking air from around where the shrater valve penetrates down through the top cap. and that valve was also kinda loose like i could wiggle it around a bit and the washer and c ring below it were a little loose, but they still had me send it so i dont know if it is something i could have tightened.

any body else have this problem? if so, what did you do?

Just got my 66 SL1 back today. Just a 12 day turn around on the service at Marzocchi.

After all the horror stories about the turn around time on service I called and talked to a service rep. After a week they hadn't even opened the box. He said he would do his best to expedite the fork and get it back to me ASAP. Got it via UPS 5 days later. Thanks to Mike at Marzocchi for great service!!

well, i finally got my fork back a few days ago.

it was like, almost a whole month from the day that i had shipped it to cali.

.. it was worth it haha
