Max, no. so far so good. I pulled everything apart, cleaned and regreased then reassembled. shock was rebuilt with race tech and oem parts.

Wow, that thing was a mess. How were the tolerances inside ?
I have an adjustable link that is like to mount but the bolts and bushings have play

I did'nt even check, it did'nt have any scouring which was my major concern. I plan on going ohlins or custom axis shock. I have been through Hell with the Kawi build lol.
