Subject: Shock absorber - question


Hi all!

In recent time I found that my bike seems to ?jump" around on the street - even on good conditioned streets. The front shock absorbers are ok, the problem has to be with the rear shock absorber or the spring.

Now the questions: 
1. Can anybody tell me, if the rear shock absorber has to be serviced after a certain time ?
2. Can it be serviced?
3. Is it only a gas-shock absorber, or is there also oil in it?
4. If it can be serviced - how?
5. Does the symptom dissappear if the rear spring is more tightened ?
