Does anyone have experience with changing the shock oil on the center shock? It was rebuilt and revalved 2 years ago (2500 miles or so). It is in good shape and I am considering changing the oil myself over the holidays if it not too difficult.
I have pulled the other shocks off and sending them out to be rebuilt - long overdue for those ones. I just have not had a chance to pull the centre shock off yet and it seems to be a challenging time of the year to find an hour to wrench on the sled.

I see it is charged with nitrogen so I decided just to pull it and send it out with the other shocks.
