BUSTED SHOCK

[tuner]

I finally had my second ride of the season and my shock busted. My suspension is lower and is stiff(won't move). There is also oil on the spring (grey color). I know my shock is busted but what do I do now? Do I have to buy a complete shock and spring or just the shock? Can my dealer rebuild it? I would also like to know anything else anyone that would help me in this situation. thanks

its my ec shock

Your EC Ohlins shock can certainly be rebuilt for a fraction of the replacement cost. I know that there are good shock rebuild shops in Canada. Perhaps a TY member from north of the border will chime in.

Bjowett from this site specializes is Ohlins and will do Avery good job. Just pm him, or if you need him number or email, pm me and I can give it to you.
