Apples/oranges not sure what,s that got to do with rebuilding every 1000 miles. Doesn't matter whether it,s the front shocks or the rear ohlin mono shock or not I don,t get your post. Sorry but Maybe I,m missing something. Either way , rebuilt every 1000 Miles is excessive but that,s my just opinion.

not personally but a close firend of mine had one in his 08 LTX and he never had to touch it before he sold it and it had well over 8000km. we don't ride easy either. again just my opininon.

Dead horse whatever...
Your friend is the exception regarding the Ohlins mono not the norm. I'm glad he had a good experience with his shock! Kudos!
I refer you to this thread running alongside the one you are reading http://www.ty4stroke.com/viewtopic.php?t=123825
Start reading page 2 and you will see I am not the only one that needed regular rebuilding of this shock... but I'm sure you are a far more experienced technician than I and I'm just blowin smoke. Have a great day and ride safe!
