Does anyone have a phone number or the name of a business in Canada that revalves shocks for an Attak and knows what they are doing. The guy in our area can do it but he said that for him it will be a shot in the dark as he has not done any for the Attak. The exchange rate is getting a little high again. 23% the other day.

Thanks

revalving

Go to shocktec He did my rear mono shock (06 attak), first rate, quick turn around excellent work. He talks to you & ask you your riding style, your weight, your needs. frank has my business & all my friends.
 
Is there anyone in the Maritime Provinces doing this work? Keep saying I'd like to do it but still haven't gottne around to it.
What real advantage is there to doing it. I knw we have a bottoming issue & I do weigh 220 lbs without the gear !!!!!! :exc:
 
SHOCKTEC!
Great guy, x snow cross racer. Knows his stuff, his shop is super clean. Re-valved my electric ohlins... big improvements. Will be bringing him 2 sets of shocks next week for oil changes and recharges.
 
Just got my fronts back. Recharged and revalved. Anxious to see if it makes as big of a differance as it did on the rear. (Attack H.D. Spring, Revalved, and custom remote reservoir w/ rebound and compression adjustments on rear mono)

How do you like your rear w/remote reservoir I was thinking of going that way...how much $$$ did he charge you, you have the "RA" w/dail "KYB" shock...
 
Got my shock back from Shocktec just before Xmas and it is way to stiff. I had bought the fatboy spring and installed it but had to remove as the suspension was way too stiff, it wouldn't even move when I sat on it. Installed the stock spring and I'm lucky if the bumper drops 1". Rode the sled in the bumps and seems to ride Ok but have not tried it on the groomed trail as of yet, I'm thinking that the suspension maybe too stiff for the smooth trail. i.e. the suspension won't move on the small bumps. I'm thinking that they may have put too much gas pressure in the shock therefore making it act like a stiffer spring. Maybe I will phone him later and check.
 
When I first rode mine with new set up in skid i set everything to thier softest position....(spring and shock) I weigh about 200lbs with out my suit and I now ride with my RA Adjuster on the third or fourth position from softest, and my spring is on the third notch from its softest setting. When I sit down my suspension also only collapses about an inch or so (maybe two). The remote reservoir adjuster also has rebound and compression adjustments but I haven't moved them too far from neutral.
