Ohlins rebuild

Post by shake1150 »

Hi!

My front Ohlins shock has started leaking. 2006 R1150R 2-spark non-ABS.
Wondering if anyone here knows of an Ohlins authorized shop in the Toronto, Canada area that can rebuild Ohlins shocks.
Looking to do both front and back shocks.

Thanks!

Best rebuilt by Ohlin USA, will be guaranteed.

I didn't know Ohlins offered that service directly. Will look into it next time.... How much do they charge?

No help for original question though...plenty of companies do this stateside. Has to be the case on your end too....

Keep in mind a lot of rebuilder do not use Ohlin parts. Ohlin charges aren't unreasonable.

For my former Ohlins I used Pilot Pro but of late I only call Ted Porter, or his guy Jeff, who updated my last set of Wilbers on my R1150S Project Bike...

Ted quoted me $300 each and another $150 for the preload adjuster minimum with a 4 week turnaround "If we have all the parts they need in stock." So MINIMUM $750 and 4 weeks. I had Ohlins USA do them and it cost $475 with a 2 week turnaround. I know who I'll go with again whenever I need another set rebuilt.

$450 vs $750 is hard to argue with...
