Must say I would'nt like to be "cooking" the reservoir like that?

As shock shaft moves into shock it displaces oil, inside reservoir is floating piston with nitrogen behind it. Shaft pushes oil through comp adjuster on reservoir, which can be used to add some compression damping, and oil then moves piston a bit to allow for difference in volume.

Stock just has bubble of nitrogen inside, no piston, so oil froths up and does what it wants.

Carbon seat infils as well, don't look to bad either. Obviously a curvy owner who loves their bike judging by the amount spent on the shock alone!

Got it, thanks all, mystery solved and a wee bit wiser. Cheers.
