Re: ZX10R 06-07 Shock rebuild?
I've had good service from companies like http://www.kais-ohlins.co.uk/ and http://www.k-tech.uk.com/ in rebuilding OEM shocks for my 2001 ZX6R

Re: ZX10R 06-07 Shock rebuild?
Not really, when filling it just attach filling tool and turn regulator, you are a good 2 foot away from the shock. I don't consider it too dangerous.
Discharging it perhaps but just point the valve away from you. The actual volume of gas is very small

Re: ZX10R 06-07 Shock rebuild?
I'm "dying" to blow myself up!
Please tell me how? No seriously, I'm not a total fool and know about the dangers of working with nitrogen but as mentioned, I have a fella to drain and recharge for me. Its the taking apart bit I want to know about in advance. |

Re: ZX10R 06-07 Shock rebuild?
Yeah, thanks, i saw that too but the manual in the link does not cover the 06-07 shock.
I'm not sure how to get at the bladder. i would also liek to know if its possible to modify it to allow for a valve? Read somewhere that someone was doing it but now cant find the link. Think ill scrap this plan all together and just start saving for the full ZX10R

Re: ZX10R 06-07 Shock rebuild?
What, it has no valve? You sure it is not just a cap covering valve?
To get to bladder you release gas, push end cap in and remove circlip, then you can pull bladder out.
