Hi all.... Has anybody had any dealings with Fastlane Motorcycles Tonbridge.... I can't be doing with Sturdeys must be one of the most unfriendly dealers in the area .. or has anybody been to the new Suzuki dealership at North Farm Tunbridge Wells... .. I just want to find someone to trust for a engine tune...

Try Steve Jordans at Great Bookham - a bit out of your way, but probably worth it
Steve knows his stuff, and Sarah races the SV, so they can't be all bad :D

Hiya Tracy........ Soooooo this is where you've been lying low... :wink:

Yes I will probably use Jordens in the near future as they can remap the Suzuki ecu and save getting a powercommander.... apparently !!! Just wanted somewhere local to get the odd thing done to the bike..

I use Steve Jordans and I live in Southampton, 2 miles from another suzuki dealer!

They did a remap and balanced the throttle bodies for me last year - made a big difference to my SV1000 - no longer jerky on a constant 3.5k throttle, and seems to pull even stronger throughout the rev range.

Can't recall how much as it was all chucked in with a 7500 mile service - if you send a PM to SV650Racer I am sure she will be happy to give you a quote :wink:

I always used sturdeys when I had my SV...they're a little cold and aloof at first but once you get to know them they're actually pretty decent blokes.
