Stock Shock Rebuild

[westgl]

Anyone know if the stock Front shocks are rebuild-able?

Depending on the type of shocks that are on the front.

I have had many Goldwings, I have used heavier shock oils to provide more load dampening.

Going from a say a 10w to a 15w makes a big difference.

Seems like the stock shocks have way to light of shock oil. A heavier shock oil may do the trick.

Rebuilding shocks are a lot less expensive than buying new shocks.

I think rebuilding my Goldwing shocks cost me about, well less than $50.00 per shock.

Anyone check into whether our shocks are rebuild-able or not.

At risk of asking a dumb question...

How do you know when your shocks are not performing up to snuff and need changing, upgrading or rebuilding?

I have never touched my suspension in 42k miles and I am happy with it. Should I be? Am I missing something?

Sorry. I thought we were talking about the RS or whatever it is called. I have had a PE for a little over two years. The question still stands though.
