Came home after a ride over the weekend to find some fluid seepage at the shock. I knew it would happen sooner or later. Would be less painful if I hadn't just done the NRHS motor mount, isolator and head R&R So it's either a rebuild of the stocker or going to a Works shock, which I wanted to do anyway. What is the difference in the Dura versus the Ultra models? I do mainly street riding, solo and I like the idea of having the shock built for my weight and riding style. Input on the Works or advise on the other alternatives?

Hope my wife doesn't notice the colored exposed shock spring LOL!

Safe ride,

Gary in Oaktown

There's a couple of NOS 14.5 inch ones on Ebay right now. I think whoever has them is a dealer getting rid of stock.
