Anyone used them for suspension setup? (or anything else for that matter)

My latest SV as the emululator cartridges fitted by Gareth at Reactive and bike handles great. He used to do the suspension for Crescent Suzuki. Only heard good reports about them.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Looks like I will be taking the R6 there after pay day to get my suspension sorted out.

Just wanting some nice weather. It's rained every days since I got the R6

Let us know what happens then Chasey, I might get my Penske serviced by them Might even see what they can do about setting up suspension... Im never certain ive got it right and if they have a Dyno they should be able to sort it out properly, and they seem to have fork revalve things there. Hmmm indeed!

Wonder how much for fork revalve and service, shock service and a setup... If its less than £300 I might be tempted, but I doubt it

A dyno tells you what damping is occurring, it doesn't tell you how that affects the tyres and your head.
