If that's the shock made by Tractive I have to say it's of high quality.  You have to realize that as a bigger guy on a bigger bike riding like you do (lol) there's not many shocks that can stand up to that.  I got Wilbers on my old GSA and blew those out (broke at clevis) then got TFX and quickly used up the telelever shock.

I agree completely. That is why I did not blame Touratech for a bad product. We both know the abuse it has seen. In reality I think the shock seal probably failed and I kept hammering the crap out of it. I do like the shock and fork work ESP did better.
