Thanks, Fog. This is then one more option for the MXR suspension.You can call Bryan at N2Dirt in Santa Clarita cal 661-252-0269. He been working on mine and it’s working great.

It's a very popular KTM WP shock. It should be pretty robust, else everyone would have heard about it.Has anyone with a 2017 had an issue with the nitrogen bypassing the resivoir piston?
How did you diagnose that?Has anyone with a 2017 had an issue with the nitrogen bypassing the resivoir piston?
I didn't, my suspension company did.How did you diagnose that?
Yeah leaking to atmosphere the ifp pressure is different then bypassing the piston and causing cavitation of the oil. If you like the piston design over a bladder, I recommend the tank if you end up changing it out. Either way look out for other designs that are longer and may interfere with subframe.I didn't, my suspension company did.
They say it's common to see poor qc of the anodizing thickness inside the cannister, which can lead to nitrogen bypassing the piston band. My bike is only at 20hrs and the tech said the nitrogen was already 50psi low, as well as showing signs of contamination in the oil.

What is "the tank"?If you like the piston design over a bladder, I recommend the tank if you end up changing it out.
I would assume he's talking about the resivoir.What is "the tank"?
Good catch! I must have forgotten to list them after I found them. I only bought eight extra 6 X 28 X .15 shims for both legs, whereas the specs call for 16 shims total.(why do you not list the four 6 X 28 X .15 shims in your actually on MX, were they really not installed?)
Yes, I did use the RaceTech base valves. You also have to flip the white/right leg compression needle valve upside down so that you have two rebound clickers at the top and two RT compression clickers at the bottom.Philip I see in your specs you used the Race Tech compression base, which I was planning on using too.
Did you try the Race Tech low-speed control kit at all, or thoughts on that?
