Administrators Eric Hall Posted May 8, 2017 Administrators My Rides (3) Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 That happened to me on my GSA doing the AZBDR but it was an aftermarket shock. Luckily it happened at the gas station when taking it off the center stand and not on the trail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
