I knew my Ohlins shock needed a boost, but I had no idea how bad it was. Seems like I've been riding thousands of miles with almost no suspension worth talking about. Those potholes in Africa bottomed the shock, and flared the barrel. The oil inside was useless. Dave Cramer's company in Melbourne fitted a heavier spring, so now it's red. I made a fool of myself over the spring, thinking it was a different diameter. Not so. But the shock came back with both eyes turned through 180 degrees. Now I've got it sitting right, and there's no problem.
