Default Good Honest Dealers

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

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

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.
