Can't they rebuild it???

I think they can, but it will be very expensive send it to them and get back, probably I will better look on ebay for OEM.

How the varking hell this happend? Was it a very bad pothole, at what speed? Did Touratech Hard Parts worked out OK?

I have the same Wilbers shock, haven't used it that much yet.

thats what happened to my brother in laws wilbers he was never confident with them after that and so went back to the oem item shame cos they were easier to adjust with having the seperate resivour when i used his bike

Pothole was big, but not enormous, just the bike was loaded with all the camping stuff, girlfriend and the pothole was after a rise, so the bike in this pothole with big force. The speed was ~30km/h. Seems that touratech parts worked out well.

Have you spoken to John at Revs Racing.

A few years ago he rebuilt a non-rebuildable Showa shock on my R1100RT.

I think he is the UK importer.
