It looks as if the shocker guy is going to do a successful repair , he sounded happy on the phone and said to expect it by Friday . $35 extra charge . Something nothing .

That at least sounds hopeful!

It took SEVEN weeks !!!! :shock: :shock: It's done and seems good but it dragged on and on and on. I'd have bought a new one but it was always going to be right next week.

My ST is back on the road ! Yipppeee ! :D

Seven weeks? He shouldn't charge you anything! At least buy you lunch.

He charged me $5 for the repair and then another $60 for a new longer braided hose to the reservior , that's cool, a separate item .

Frankly I'm just glad to be on the road again.

The problem with tomorrow (or next week) is that it's always today. :mrgreen: Anyway, glad to see you're back on the road.

Now if I can only get my bike back on the road--but that's another story. :cry:
