    My '10 wr 125 has a sachs horizontal shock resevoir on it, and just lately, Oct. 18th to be exact, the resevoir started cavitating on rebound only.

    Has anyone had any issues with the Sachs rear shock set -up? What has to be done about it? I still have two months factory warranty.

    Thanks, Tommy:(:cheers:

    The angle of the shock resi should have no affect on the cavitation as these are all under pressure. The issue LTR dealt with on my buddies Sacks (off a GG) was something to do with the piston or bushing. Call Les.

    Went to LT racing website and it sounds like Les and his crew have pinpointed the exact issue I am experiencing. I've sent the website as a link to my retailer Diamondhead Yamaha and hope this helps in a speedy repair.

    PS. Thanks LT Racing for your dudiligance!

    I sent my Ohilns forks and shock that came on my Gas Gas to Les. I needed to change springs since I weigh 205lbs and it was sprung for 160lb rider. It cost about $500 but it was a 7year old bike. It works so sweet now I will send my Husky suspension to him when it's time for it's 1st service. I suggest calling him. He told me what it would cost and what he would most likely have to do to it to make it right and it was exactly what he quoted no surprises.
