Ohlins shock - rebuild recommedations?

[paulgthomson]

Hi,

Just got my hands on an Ohlins rear shock. I want to treat it to a rebuild. Can anyone recommend anyone? Fitting in the London area would be a massive plus

Thanks,

Paul

Another one for you that shouldn't be too far......

They are the official Ohlins supplier for the UK - so they should be able to service your unit.

My local Ohlins Dealer (Crescent Suzuki in Bournemouth who run the Rizla Suzuki Team) reckon on around £100 for a full service & rebuild.

here is a link to the Ohlins Mounting Instructions for the 95-03 @

I have the 46HRCS for my RD07A, but haven't got round to fitting it yet (I'm waiting until I get round to fitting the centre stand first )

Thanks Guys - I've dropped a line to a few of them. I'll let you know what I get back.

Stay well clear of KAIS in Atherton, not going into details but they buggered me around for months and then landed me with a monster bill.

I've had good results from both Harris and K-tech for ohlins work, but PDQ may also be worth a try as they seem to know their stuff (at least Nick on the dyno does).

Good luck and let us know how you fared.
