It must be annoying but China is in lockdown, shipping containers are in the wrong places and shipping generally is suffering delays from pandemic related causes. Meanwhile, P&O ferries are still not working 100% and there are big tailbacks at Dover. Somewhere in that mess is your shock.

After an initial issue with my 2016 AL7, it has been fault free and remains the best bike I have owned and far nicer to ride than the Z900RS. Now at 33k miles - I've never owned a bike long enough before to put a flat on the gear lever rubber.

Couldn't you have continued to ride the bike whilst the new shock was on order or was the old shock dangerously bad?
