One of my fairly new (installed last July) Elka stage 2 front shock units blew a seal and started drooling. Sent it in last Thursday to their West coast service center for warranty repair. Can't get to upset. Just the luck of the draw I guess. They are sure wonderful units. They just totally transformed my ST.
Hopefully I will have it back in about 2 weeks. We will be in Phoenix for about a month and have a lot of riding we still want to do.
