Store the shocks in the  position that they are normally mounted on the bike, 
not laying down.  Put  tape on the boxes to mark the top and make it clear to 
keep them stored thsi  way. If you lay stock BMW shocks on their side for a 
year or two, they will not  work anymore when you reinstall them. I don't know 
exactly what happens in  there, but something does.
