This morning I noticed oil on the garage floor, from my 2007 XB12Ss. I found it leaking out of the rear shock reservoir. Is this something that can be refilled? Do I need to replace the reservoir or the whole rear shock? I see people on eBay selling them used, and noting they need to be recharged? Any help would be great!

I believe its a sealed unit(IE not intended to be rebuilt), A rebuild might be pricey but possible. However you should be able to recharge a new one if you have the recommended PSI and access to nitrogen.
