M750 rear shock repair/replacement source?

Does anybody know where I can get a replacement shock for my monster?
Either that, or repair the existing (the damping has gone awol at 16,000 with a rather obvious oil leak).
I put it down to ignoring the fact that speed bumps are there for reducing your speed, not encouraging you to see how much air you can get. Ho hum....

Race tech do a DIY rebuild kit for the monster shock, cost about £130 I think, includes new damping valves etc and a how - to video. You'll need to get the shock re-gassed afterwards though. Never tried it but Race Tech is generally good stuff.
Your cheapest replacement unit is likely to be someone like Hagon at around £225, probably worth looking at Ohlins though, costs a bit more but is top quality and will do wonders for the bike's handling!!
