My shock is not the Ohlins. I think its a Sachs.
I think the linkage is in good shape because the static sag changes very little when doing the push down versus pull up test on the rear end. I still need to open it up, clean, inspect and grease it though to really know.
I am guessing that the oil in my folks and shock are pretty dirty. I don't see any suspension company stickers on either one so they may have never been opened up for all I know.
A fork oil change should be pretty easy.
How difficult is the rear shock to service versus Showa and WP stuff? Looks like there is a piston in the shock versus a bladder.
I measured the rear rider sag at about 111 mm with no gear on, but don't recall the front sag offhand (60 mm rings a bell). So maybe the springs are in the ballpark.
