Right I've got the bike sorted out today.

Nice new boots, chain and sprockets (the front one was getting its teeth bent and suspension sorted out) nice garage he's got and what good staff. I can deffo recommend them :smt003

Had a little bimble on the way home, I think when the rubbers properly scrubbed up the back end will be great for sliding about. (but I'm to chicken).

I've got me and my bike booked in at Steve Jordan motorcycles in Gt Bookham in a couple of weeks. Will get them to fit my yellow spring shock (with or without linkage - depends if I can get some) and set up suspension for me. Aparently they are suspension experts, which is nice :smt003

Bloody good racer too. :smt001 Ive seen and heard of him at the racetracks, where everyone sings his praises.

Can those visiting suzzy experts please leave positive feedback for them in the servicing thread (aprilia tech section) if applicable?! Cheers :smt001

Well I suppose he is and isnt. Don used to set all his suspension up at the track, I'd say that he's pretty expert at it! He understands it a lot better than most!! Ithink im in the same boat as you. IF I had an Aprilia, I doubt i'd go anywhere but there to be honest, but then again like you, I know him :smt001

How did it go by the way? what was the before and after like as far as yours goes? (nuvver thread maybe?)

Only got one interested reply, so I've found a place near by me that will do it (Steve Jordan). Bit of a shame as Sean was cheaper and sounded a decent bloke.

Still, might be an option later in the year for a bit of tweaking if we can get the numbers.
