I've had my shock replaced last year at 5000kms, checked it on the weekend and this new one is also leaking after 4000kms, is this normal and is anabody else having this problem??? This shock is for a '05 RX1 121" Should I get it rebuilt or just ride it t'ill it dies, it still has charge. :o|
 
There were a few shocks that were leaking from the factory. They were replaced under warranty, ride it with it leaking and the rebuild won't be far behind. Did you have your original replaced because it was leaking? Why did you replace your original instead of having it rebuilt?
 
I was told the main shaft was shot, so Yam replaced it under warranty and again this year its leaking and my freind wich drives the exact same sled bought at exact same time has a leaky shock too, I'm starting to think that its a weakness and Yam hopefuly will stand behind their product, are we the only ones with this problem!!!
 
Yamaha should have extended the warranty on your shock. I have not had any problems with mine, possibly something causing damage to your shock.
