Took the fast route there, M25, M3, A316, A406 (north circular( then hang a right at the M1), 35 mins door to door, not bad on fecked tyres and a jittery ride
So get there and its got loads of blokes who are all smiles
, have a chat with the bloke behind the counter and he's all attentive. So 1st off the wheels are off and new tyres fitted, the mechanic notices as he puts the wheel back on, the chain has more tight spots than a scotsman at the bar, ok so lets have new chain and sprockets, 15 front 44 rear (yeah I don't know what that translates to speed or gearing wise) funny thing was the front sprockets teeth (BTW it had 16 teeth) had a few that looked as if the chain had munched them a bit, they were bent.Guru time, Don and one of his blokes then started looking at the sussy settings, I'm told that there's little to no rebound at the front end and the backs nearly as bad. I was asked if it was skittish at the back end, well it was for me, rear damping was altered quite a bit, (he doesn't like Falco's with Mille rear ends, He gives you an odd look as if to say, you want a Mille rear, buy a Mille).
Anyway after all this, its home time and bloody hell what a transformation the suspension is, its point and go, the rear feels like the CB5 I had did when you got enthusiastic with it, now I don't know if I could use it like that as 6 years and more aches and pains don't help, but I guess I'll find out on my 1st track day with it.
Tim if you want to move it somewhere else please do
