So I put a mono suspension in my 07 RTX I have a couple of issues already. One it seems like the suspension is sagging. I did measure all of tthe holes from a GT and put mine in the correct places. When you pick up on the suspension the rear comes up but you have to pick up on it about 3 inches before the front comes off the ground like its not coupling or something. I dont know if I am missing some setting or something that is not right.

Next issue is the damn broken wire on the shock. It is a brand new replacement shock so it has the black cap held in by a clip over the top. One ride and the wire broke at the cap I need a new one and I need it really fast. Any idea where to get one at a reasonable price. My dealer had one but 192.00 bucks. In the paperwork for the shock it has a list of parts and its only 92.00 in there.
 
For the black solenoid on top of the shock, pm bjowett of Jowett engineering, he's a site supporter and specializes in Ohlins and can get all the parts. Very nice and knowledgeable guy.


I have the same shock and I had Jowett convert mine to a top clicker for compression as my wire would break every ride too. The shock is better now and has reliable adjustment.
 
Bjowett is helping me out with the new piece I really want the electric to work. I cant beleive I spent that much and only got one little ride before it broke. The suspension seems to sag in more than I thought it should the rear comes up but the front is on the ground until the rear is about 4 inches off the ground like they are not coupled
