My 2008 990 Adventure’s rear shock decided to relieve itself of oil half way into Old Mill Drift recently. Granted I was loaded with camping stuff but it’s premature in my opinion.
This happened a few years ago and I got @superfoxi to re”do” it for me, but I think maybe it’s time for a replacement.

Is the oem part the best way to go or is there an aftermarket option that’s better in some way?
The bike and I are moving to the UK in a few months so I guess that open up options too.

Any advice/experience/opinion is welcome.
