Replacement Service Information
This service is only available for RX1, FLEX AVS & FLEX Z.
Service Descriptions
Replacement Service makes it possible to restore the damper's performance by replacing an old and/or worn-out shock absorber with a new one.
Replacement shock absorber can not only be made to the same specifications as the original, of course, but also to the desired damping force settings and/or stroke length.
Replacement shock absorber does NOT include any outer parts/components, such upper mounts, springs, lower brackets, dust boots, bump rubbers, etc. Reuse outer parts removed from the original shock absorber.
Original shock absorber does NOT need to be sent in for replacement.
- Damping Force Change ---
- The combination of Shock absorber's inner parts is changed to modify the damping force setup to meet the specific use conditions and/or preference.
- Stroke Change ---
- Shock absorber's inner components are modified and/or replaced to change the stroke length to meet the specific use conditions and/or preference.
We may decline damping force and/or stroke change request if such change could lead to performance degradation, breakage and/or accident.
