Rear Shock Rebuild Advice?
Posted: Sun Jul 08, 2007 7:21 pm
Pasoists,
The rear shock from my '88 750 Paso has a slow drip, which appears to be from the shock shaft seal. After almost 20 years of great service, I think a rebuild is in order. I'm fairly sure it's a Marzocchi (it's not marked, but I'm sure it would be if it were an Ohlins). Who's rebuilt their shock, or who's had it done? If I could find a reputable shop I'd prefer to send it in for service vs. doing the job myself, but I think this' really risky. Be just my luck to send it off and either never get it back, or almost as bad get it back all screwed up.
THANKS for any help!
Dave
