Questions re: ESA rear shock rebuilt
I am currently travelling in South America.
In Bolivia, the rear shock of my R1200GS started to leak oil. Now I am in Sucre, Bolivia and took my GS to a local repair shop (non BMW). The mechanic reckons he is able to repair it (changing the oil seal and refill oil), but he would like to know a few things before he starts the job/ My shock is with ESA. 1. Viscosity of oil used for the standard BMW shock 2. The amount of oil should be refilled 3. If it is a good idea to refill oil with higher viscosity than standard He said he would like to do the job good and these information will help us a lot. Thank you in advance. Saburo from Japan |
