    Stock rear shocks are not serviceable, they are not rebuildable and you can't replace the oil. I don't thenk they are air sprung either.

    '06 FZ1000 - "What we are dealing with here, is a COMPLETE lack of respect for the law."

    I ride, therefore I am.... constantly buying new tires.

        Marco the only place I can think of that would have that info is a genuine service manual, it may not either as the shock may have been considered "non- rebuildable" by Suzuki, only other thought would be to ask a suspension rebuilder.

            I am not sure what the shocks are like on your model, but I have an 82 katana 1100 that had bad shocks. Rebuild was not an option, so I went with a set from a kawasaki. They fit just fine....and in my opinion, look much nicer on a bike like the katana. Not sure how they will look on yours.
            I got them for $200 delivered by joining a kawa forum......which I will deny doing if asked...lol.
