Motorcycle Shock Regassing Ports & Parts

Motorbikes with piggyback-style shock absorbers sometimes have an internal floating piston (IFP) that separates oil & nitrogen - but much more commonly - a rubber bladder reservoir that holds the gas separately. This heavy duty little balloon is less prone to leaking than the seals of separating pistons, so most OEM rear dampers use them in the piggy back chamber - learn more about shock layouts.

Bladders have end caps in a massive variety of shapes & sizes that all feature one of these air ports so you can regas the shock after a suspension rebuild. Some models feature a rubber bung that gets pierced by a regassing needle while others have easy to refill schrader (tyre) valves and cap.

Our gassing tools have pressure gauges & adaptors so you can nitrogen charge your own shocks.

We have stock servicing components like seals, o-rings & retaining c-clips to hold the bladder inside the body - but remember we also carry a huge range of bladder & cap upgrades - high capacity kits for plusher damping, short caps for more clearance, bladder conversion kits for IFP shocks, all in a range of spectacular anodized colours! Remember that once it's back together you still need to tune it for your riding to get the most comfort & speed.
