suzuki250 Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 The rear shock on my bike has stopped working correctly, it will only go down 2/3 the travel then hits a dead stop hard (about 5mm before the rubber bump stop) Anyone else had this problem?

lineaway Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Not a whole lot of people repair a Sachs.Time to look for a new shock.Bent shaft, shock head damaged. Let us know if you get it apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzuki250 Posted May 24, 2018 Author Share Posted May 24, 2018 Are the Sachs shock on the Beta, Sherco TXT Pro the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzuki250 Posted May 27, 2018 Author Share Posted May 27, 2018 I’ve rebuilt the shock using the above video & info off the net, it was quite a simple fix. The only bit I wasn’t keen on was drilling it to let the pressure out! I will post some photos later 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
