I have read comments that the rear shock should be rebuilt after five years or 20K miles, that even on the shelf, they don't last. Does this apply to all shocks or just the ones made in the 80's?
I'll admit that my shock on my '91Katana 1100 will be sent out for service this winter (I see a little oil on the end of the rod and it just doesn't feel damped)But, do they have better fluid and seals now than they did back in the 80's, or will my rebuild only be good for five years?
My '11 C14 now has about 35K miles and the shock on it still feels fine, that's why I ask about the longitivity of Katana shocks
