RZV vs RZ rear shock.
I remember a thread explaining the differences and if I recall that the RZV one is rebuildable but I can't find it? Anyone have info or a link to the thread ?

Re: RZV vs RZ rear shock.
Thanx Steve but not the recent discussion, it was a few years ago. All I know is the RZ/RD is steel body and the RZV is alloy with integral mount. I recall it was easy to rebuild the RZV one compared to the RZ/RD shock but forgot the details. Just got mine and it's in mint condition and only 10,000 km but I am curious about rebuild possibilities in the future. My search came up empty so far although the recent thread is helpful, Thanx
