Need rear shock advice
Hillclimb#42:
You definately should take it to a person who does it all the time. It is alot more involved than just adding oil, or a seal. If the bike acts like a pogo-stick, then it is completely blown already. It should always come up slow, not just as fast as it goes down. The ergonomics are better on newer bikes and the angles of the shocks and all that are different. They are alot lighter now too, but it sounds like you are running on a blown shock.
