hmm, your right about the stickers being 2001, but didnt the red crown emblem only come out in 2002?

I was thinking the same thing. Kind of weird???

those could be replacement stickers...i know mine sure didnt last long, although i never bothered to replace them. Although i thought 2002's also came with marked leg guards...

well this is all pretty academic anyways...

Nope, my 01 has the red emblem.

cool, so its probably a late production model 2001 then.

Other than the look is there any difference between 2001 and 2002?

theres an air bleed screw on the 2002s which doesnt affect performance.

Here are some more pictures- questions are on the pictures:

you can just loosen the crowns and spin the legs to get the decals in the right place can't you? but ya it looks like an 02.

Do you think it is worth it to trade my 2003 Junior T for a 2001 Shiver? Will the performance be noticeably better than before?

looks like an '02 to me, but I'm not totally sure....I'd get the serial # & call Marzocchi

Is this a serious question being asked?

If it is a straight trade for equally functioning (no oil leaks, bushings not shot) junior T for a shiver then do it in a second.

As to if the performance will be noticeably better, depends for what. Riding uphill probably not. Going real fast downhill absolutely. Especially through stutter bumps where a Jr T is absolute sh!t.

If the Shiver is not in bad shape I do not see how you can lose. Unless the steertube is too short to fit on your bike.

Sorry Bob...

that being said, the shiver is a super sick fork-
esp. w/ the moto cart.(03-05)

But the damping on the Shiver, HSCV, has been the same since 01 and continues unchanged for 05. There have never been MX carts in the Shiver. The only Marz bike fork to have MX carts was the 03-present Monster T. People for some reason seem to get the bike Shiver confused with the Moto one. For more reference check this thread... Shiver DC cartridge factiod

IS it an OEM Shiver? It says that there weren't any according to that topic but were the OEM one's any difference in performance incase it is? Thanks and sorry for all the questions I ask here.

geez, you're a worrier arent you?

yes, it may possibly be OEM, but they are the same as the aftermarket ones, exept some may have different colors. Some early ones didnt have fork guards but of course this is not the case.

ITS A GREAT FORK NO MATTER WHAT THE YEAR OR WHERE IT CAME FROM!!!!

Alright thanks Zedro and everyone else. Just want to make sure becasue it is a big descision to make when getting a new fork and I don't want it to be a bad fork (which now I know it isn't). Thanks again.
