I have a side mount ohlins (piston style) dampner, and the the shaft that slides in and out was bent, who can fix these. Do u send them to Ohlins, or what? Any suggestions would help, thanks Steven
If the damper requires any disassembly, you'll have to send it to Ohlins USA in North Carolina. At least, it is my understanding that there is only one machine in North America capable of properly refilling a steering damper and that Ohlins HQ are the folks that have it.
Naw.. a lot of guys actually do it themselves. I heard the same thing about TTX shocks. "Impossible not to get air in 'em"... FWIW, we've had Stig tweak/rebuild ours for years.
Yeah what he said. I've been there done that. I would almost be cheaper just to buy a new one, if you have parts that need replaced as well.
