My 2003 Gsxr1k has almost 40k miles on it.
I've been collecting parts for a while now, as I'll be replacing everything maintenance related.
Forks were recently done, and I can do those anyway.
For the rear shock; can I rebuild it? Yes..but I have no idea where to get the parts. Plus, I'll have to take it somewhere to get nitrogen put in it.
And, the real kicker is...this is a 40k mile 20 year old 1k.
It's a good bike...but I don't want to spend a grand on real shock for it, or anywhere close.
I'de like to rebuild it myself, or send it to someone that can change the oil and seals.
I weigh 190 lbs in full gear, and a stock shock is good enough.
I'm not changing valving or the spring, as then the cost starts going up alot.
Does anyone know of any businesses that offer this service, or sell the parts?
I've searched and searched to no avail, and RaceTech has very little 03/04 Gsxr anything.
I also cannot find anything newer that will just bolt in.
Thanks for any info.
