My Lightnings rear shock is u/s, is it able to be reconditioned.
If not is an aftermarket shock available as i've been quoted approx 6 weeks
for std shock from the states.

Hope you guys can help.

Ta Neil.

There's a company in the NW that claims to be able to do it but you'll be wasting your money. I've sampled their wares and they're really shite. I think they forgot to put any oil back in it from the way it performed :roll:
Take the advice Maz gave you and fit an AST. It's possibly THE best performance accessory you could fit to a Buell and it won't grenade your motor 8-)

:?: Why do they list a different shock for the X1 & M2 - I can't think what is different apart from the X1 being a little heavier. My M1 has a recall shock fitted which entailed a different front mount if I remember - does the AST take account of that?

Yes.

AST will custom build a shock to your exact requirements.

Apart from weight of bike/rider and mounting points what else is there to think of :?:

Ask Ronnie (post above yours) as he makes the AST :lol:

.....damping rates, hydraulic platforms, piggyback remotes, colours etc. etc.

on our website there are no tuber shocks on :?

I only need to know the length of the shock(420 or 380)and your weight,that's all.
