I'm concerned the Montero 250 doesn't have a mud flap for the rear wheel. :roll: Without a mud flap the piston shaft of the shock absorber will carry mud past the oil seal, ruining the seal. The shock absorber will then leak oil and fail, resulting in a "pogo stick" which lacks any rebound damping. :( In my opinion, an oversight of this manner in a "dual sport" motorcycle casts doubt on the entire design of the bike. :?
