Leaking shock.

[Steve S]

I washed the Venture today and after backing it back in the shop to put it back together, I noticed some oil dripping underneath the center of the bike. Looked it over and it looks like the shock is leaking. 

A couple of questions here.  

Will it hurt to continue to ride the bike with a bad shock? 

And second, who can I get to rebuild this shock?

Thanks for any help.

It is more or less ok to ride but you’ll get a pogo effect.   If it’s just leaking oil, you can repair it.

I texted @dfitzbiz contact info to you. He’ll rebuild it.
