CBR rebuild...a question:...
1988 Hurricane, 82ks:....
Hi Guys, my project Hurricane is down to the frame now to be painted...I will have many questions, but this one comes to mind now, re. the rear shock...it is Nitrogen filled apparently, is there anything I should do or check or just clean up as required and refit?..it gives several scary warnings on it to take it to an "authorised Honda dealer" for maintenance..should I need to?
Many thanks in advance,
Peter.

if the shocks ok, then a clean up will be ok, but after being on the bike that long and well its off the bike i would consider at least a rebuild, alot of places will tell you it cant be rebuilt but it can, depending where in the world you live, in the uk

Pretty much what wheelnut said.
Just want to add, all of those warnings are serious.
You need special tools to do a rebuild, safely.
So it's a replace or go to a shop, as your real-world options.
If you're on a budget, check for a low-milage tear-down on ebay.
For the average rider, that's a viable path, too.
