Sorry new here.., been lurking for a while but would like to thank callum for his write up as managed to get in with steve at short notice after his recommendation yesterday for a setup and dyno remap as was having similar issues to you. All i can say is awesome its prompted me to register and join the banter The bike now rides so planted and the fueling is very smooth now unlike before as it was a bit snatchy at low revs. I was able to watch the last run and to be honest i would not of wanted to stand in there for 3 hours as was quite smelly and very loud even with ear things on. he explained that he doesnt mind people watching but their insurance company might get a little exzcited about non staff being in the workshop which is fair enough and that they would put a viewing window in but thats right next to a work bench and they dont want the mechanics being disrupted during work as its important they concentrate..fair enough again, i know id not like someone watching me when i work but then i only do boring pen pushing!. Steve took time to explain how the mapping worked and the maps are written and showed me a few bits on the dyno but it all kind of went over my head after five mins lol. I wouldnt hesitate trusting him at all seems a very nice guy. he also explained the suspension and it not being just a case of winding a few bits here and there. he gave me some track settings and showed me what i need to do when i take her onto the track in a few weeks. btw the girl in the shop is steves wife i think..very knowledgable and makes a decent cuppa.
I wouldn't recommend them. They set my suspension up far too hard and having quoted 2-3 hours to fit bar risers and brake lines, they charge me 5 hours......then when I returned the bike so they could adjust the bars to the way I'd asked in the first place, they wanted more money.....the final straw was a leaking banjo which required me to return the bike again, so they could bleed the brakes and replace a damaged washer..... The only reason I went in the first place was because I bought my bike in October and I didn't fancy riding the first 600 miles of a new bike to visit the guy who normally sets up my suspension. I would highly recommend John Sanderson at Alpha Suspension in Morley, Leeds. Top man. Also, on Arthur's recommendation, I visited Dynotech in Tadley yesterday to have a power commander fitted. Having fitted a Bos exhaust, the bike was a bit lumpy. Now it's smooth as......Top guys.
That's odd ....? After I had my suspension set up they said I could come back anytime to have it tweaked (no charge)
