Rear shock leaking
 
Hi, a couple of days ago i friend noticed that my rear shock is leaking.
It had oil on the shock stem:mad:

What can i do?Is there a way to fix it or i have to be looking for a new one?

Not worth your time or money to have that OEM shock rebuilt..... there is no pressure port, you have to drill the body, disassemble, install a schrader valve, then repair the leak (new seal at least).. all for a OEM chunk of not great shock.

Talk to Jamie here on the list http://www.daughertymotorsports.com/ and ask about a custom modified shock...

Absolutely agree with E! If you can't afford that, jump on ebay and make someone an offer.

Make me an offer. Got one at home.

Cheap way is an ebay stocker. I got one from Jamie and really like it. If you can swing it get one from him.

Be REAL careful riding around on a bike with a blown shock. It can get real unstable at exactly the wrong times.
