OK, I'll be honest, I expected more than 21-22K out of it but my rear shock has given up the ghost nonetheless. I've not had a chance to have a proper look as I've still not had a chance to clean off the crud from Lakeland but it's pishin' oot oil and bouncin' around on the spring. Feels like riding on oval wheels and not at all right.

I've seen one at a brakers, listed as a XT660Z Tenere Rear Shock, so my question is would this (a used one) be a good idea? Have they changed from year to year (mine's a 2010)? My spring coating is white � I thought this was usual on the Ten but the one at the breakers is Red � should this be a red flag? Is it an easy job, swapping out shocks? Any advice gratefully received guys, I gotta get this sorted quick-smart
