Opened the garage this morning to see the bike sitting in a little puddle, seems like the rear suspension piston seal has let go and pissed itself.

Rode it to work anyway because I have no choice, didn't feel any real difference. The spring is still springing.

Found a replacement, so my question is can I replace the duff unit without taking the swingarm off? Stolen pic cos my cam phone is b0rked.

Usually, yes. Depends if there's a remote reservoir on top and if that will pass through the swing-arm cutout. You'll have to remove the knuckle and those dogbone bolts can be VERY tight.

No res or any other gubbins on this, it's about as basic as you can get.
