Can't you just take one off the SX when you need one for the 6R?

I'll line em up and check
I think the SX is 60mm and the 6r isn't.

The moment you see the picture and tell Parkitt that's just the condition of the shock!
All joking aside, that sucks.. I'm glad I delivered mine to the suspension guy myself now

Sadly any claim is limited to the value of the goods, not the replacement. So it won't be paying for an Ohlins to go on there.
