Can you get me an adjustable eyelet for my Ohlins shock part# is 01061-04
Also how much$? How much to change juices in my Ohlins fork and shock if I bring them to you? They're 2 years old, about 11k mi, so....whatever you think I'll need. Thanks

What is the shock number? and What bike is it for?

The shock # is AP8271, it's on an 04 Aprilia RSVR. The eyelet I'm looking for is 10mm longer than the stock one. The shock is maxed out at 317mm now, trying to get it to 325.

$74.95, I have one in stock

I'll have you put it on when you have the shock and forks. When do you want them?

A heavy hand and a grinder. I may even get my friend to machine a new one up if it starts to look iffy.

i recall Clarkie doing this to his dogbone; he took some off the top of it and he shaved some off the bottom eye on the shock. Its too bad there is not a snap-in replacement for the linkage that will allow a steep angle for the swingarm. I guess you could make the whole thing a little longer... get rid of the stock linkage and fab-up something.

good luck!

Hey Burnham, you can send in the suspension any time.

O.K. I'll pull it this weekend. I'll need a second eyelet for the same shock (for a friend). Thanks
