Misspent Youth Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Don't forget Jim Lindemann. Aftershocks won't rebuild some stock Honda shocks (early VFR, for example), but Lindemann will. His response to my query: "Stock shock is about $425. our rebuild is about $175-$200. $50 less the second time. our rebuild/revalve/respring is about $375-$400, which is better then stock. We are the only shop to have had stock based shocks win AMA PRO RoadRace NATIONALS. Thx jim" I should add that I sent the query on Friday afternoon and got a personal response from Jim on Monday. Have heard only good things about the outfit. For those in need of refreshed suspension but who don't need (or do want to afford) the zoot shocks, this is the way to go.

Member Contributer tooslow Posted January 23, 2007 Member Contributer Share Posted January 23, 2007 does he have an exchange program, if not what might the turnaround be for a rebuild of your shock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misspent Youth Posted January 23, 2007 Author Share Posted January 23, 2007 does he have an exchange program, if not what might the turnaround be for a rebuild of your shock. Sorry, I have no other info. I just made a inquiry re: a shock rebuild and haven't used them before, though I've heard of them for years, always positively. I suspect they would not have a spare to lend, but it couldn't hurt to ask. email is leracing@mindspring.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer JamieDaugherty Posted January 23, 2007 Member Contributer Share Posted January 23, 2007 Wow, so the $150 that I've charged people for this was way too low then. Nice to know! A rebuild is not a very big deal really. The only tough part is welding on a schrader valve so that it can be recharged. Other than that it's an hour job... tops.

soichiro Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 What about the 6th gen shock. The manual says it is not serviceable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Lindemann Engineering did all my fork and shock work when I was racing. Good people, good service, good turn around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinyminds Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 What about the 6th gen shock. The manual says it is not serviceable. Technically, the dealership can't service it, but with the correct machining tool from people that specialize in it, could rebuild the shock ( service it ). But generally its not a servicable item, ' theoretically ' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
