Why does my GT SHOCK keep blowing?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Found the shock blown for the 5th time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The wire broke for the 2nd time, I fixed it...........
Sent it out and now it's back. I paid overnight shipping so I can ride this weekend....... I just spent 3 hours putting it back togather and back apart, and now back togather. No shock adjustment! Hard wired it with the same result...

I don't get. I never Jump!

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND!

Am I the only one?

Will I kill it riding it this weekend?

Who has been rebuilding your shock?

shock rebuil

when you have your shock rebuilt send it to pioneer performance and have install the updated x-head(i think thats what they call it).had mine redone 2300 miles ago and have not blown it yet.Shane

I had Bruce @ Pioneer revalve / respring my EC in my 06 GT before I even rode the machine for the first time. Had him install the 07 seal head. I haven't blown it yet, but concerned about the wires. I did strap them down per the yamaha updated bulletin, but not sure if this is the "cure-all"...

did you eliminate the black boot that goes over the plug in?

This is what they have done to fix this problem for 2008 sleds
