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?
it wasn't pleasant riding it ,i thought i had a puncture at first. not sure how dangerous it might be.
