It shouldn't cost much for a oil change and a re gas unless you'r going for a re-valve as well?

Russ at Mick Gardner Racing Does all of my suspension work. Give him a bell and I'm sure he'll sort you something out.

That's why I've got a KR1S shock in piecies It was knacked when he stripped it. He is good and honest when it comes to suspension and you can just phone him at any time for help or advise on bike set up or anything suspension related. He won't just re-gas and oil a knacked shock and charge you for it.
In the end I bite the bullet and got him to make the ohlins for me. It wasn't that much more expensive then messing about and trawlling round buying shocks and getting them stripped.
