Taken ohlins shock off and replaced with a std shock in meantime whilst I get ohlins resprung and serviced. Seen a few places to send it off to but has anybody got any suggestions?

See if you can track down a bloke called Colin Leeder, of 100% suspension. He used to do the set ups on 100% trackdays, but pretty sure he went it alone when they folded ( I think ). Good bloke, knows his stuff, wasnt overly epensive.

There you go.

Bike looking good Lee . Da fcuk did you manage to get a 19ltr tank from , I'd sell a kidney for one ( Anyone want a kidney )

Sold mine on ebay earlier this year

took me years to come by one and by the time i had got the tank i had wanted for years i no longer had a use for it

Cheers for advice guys. I think Ill give KAIS a go first, given that they are so close.Unless they are stupidly expensive then Ill try one of the other suggestions. Can get them to set the whole bike up for me once the ohlins is fitted.

Hopefully put an end to my ground clearance issues . The amount Ive eaten over the last 2 days wont help though !!!

Just make sure you get linear springs
Progressive is no good for how you ride .

Okay, I will do
