DR650SE Rear Shock Gas Pressure
Just got a 2005 DR for my partner which has very little/no rebound damping in the rear shock. It is less than 4000mls old and appears to be in good condition. No evidence of oil leaks at all. It has a schrader valve under the remote reservoir. What goes into this? Is it just air or is it nitrogen or something similar? Does anyone know what pressure the gas should be at? I am thinking that if the gas bladder is empty it will effect the rebound damping as the oil will also not be under pressure. This is only a hunch cos I think I am venturing in the land of knowing very little of what I am talking about (not unusual).
Thanks
