[QUOTE="DEANSFASTWAY, post: 444535, member: 31309"] Maybe the shop only replaced the seal &wiper and not the bushing that guides the shaft or maybe there are problems in the shaft surface .It is real important to have a mud flap under the air box installed and intact to keep debris sand/gravel /rocks/roost etc. out of the shock . without this the shock shaft will get sandblasted in short order . I know guys that never clean their bikes and mud cakes on their fork tubes and that gets past the wipers and causes fork seal leakage eventually , that can also happen to a shock . Better have them take another look ar if unsure find someone else . Shafts are probably available from WP shosc I think or can be rechromed or repaired or built . Look real close at trhe shaft for pitting or discoloration . If your shock leaks nitro it will cause the seal to weep or leak just l;ike Marcus said . GOOD LUCK [/QUOTE]
