TT600 Ohlins rear shock

Hi again XT/TT folk,


I'm fed up with having to remount the remote reservoir thingy for my TT600 every time I fall off. I'm not sure whether the air thingy works anyway. Can I just disconnect the pipe from the top of the shock and put in a blank where the banjo bolt fits? Or am I likely to do myself a serious injury?


Fire away,

Cheers,

Dicky

I would,nt do it as I thought it was a pressurized canister. Surely there is somewhere you can mount it out of the way?
