    Suspension set up day/sausage sizzle with Shaun Harris 17/4/2010

    COME ENJOY A BARBY AND FREE SUSPENSION SETUP ADVICE AND WITH SHAUN HARRIS

    HERES THE DEAL
    come down to MILLARS CAR CENTRE from 10.30 am.
    SHAUN HARRIS will be in my gargre with his measuring tools ready to advise you on ways to improve your suspension from just simple adjustments through to -well thats up to you-- BUT the skys the limit.
    Guys n gals this is a rare opportunity to meet a man you KNOW has more than a couple of clues about suspension.
    Jus listening to what he says will be an education in itself let alone the chance to get your bike transformed from an evil brute back into the bike you love.

    Shaun will measure up the sag settings on your bike, Shaun will then give you an educated opinion of what work you might need and what you may need or want doing, to improve your ride, and make it safer to ride.
    The idea is for you to come to my car/bike yard and talk with Shaun face to face, so You can work out any work different or related to a great offer he has going and as a way for determining if you need or want any work to be done, and to confirm bookings for any work in the future .
    Shaun will be based in the main workshop in the yard . Entry will be via the main back door of the workshop
    MEANWHILE
    Ill have a couple of bags of sausages to cook up on the barby and tea n coffee for those that want a hot drink.You guys n gals can sit around and generally have a chinwag

    As an aside when you get your bike back there is an IDEAL test ride route of 15km that WILL tell you if the bike is transformed--AND its just down the road.
    PLEASE NOTE
    Car/Trailer parking is OVER THE ROAD in the carpark.
    BIKE PARKING is round the back of the workshop
    -Sorry I just dont have room for a bunch of cars/trailers/vans actually in the yard.

    Heres a map thingee -Directly over the road from Enterprise rd is is our yard

    Do you have to have fancy suspension to come? I've just got my TRX and was meaning to have someone (maybe the bike shop) help me make some changes...but it's just whatever the stock adjustability is.

    Don't need fancy suspension - Shaun will sell you some when you get there.

    Damn, been keeping an eye out for one of these days, but this one I am away. Maybe next time for me.

    Hey Frosty, why not see if you can get this front and centre on the home page?
    For most people it'll be the best offer they get all year.

    to any one that is thinking of going to this day do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    My bike handled not to well when I got it read heaps of suspnsion books had a few people look at it and not much difference.
    5 mins talking to Shaun about what the bike was doing and another 5 with his trusty measuring tape. I then took the bike for a ride and the difference was night and day the bike now handles really well on the track and road.
    Take the time to go this will be one of the best investments you can do for your riding.

    Oh I figured out instead of buying upgrades to make the bike go faster losing 5 kg on the rider has the same effect and is a lot cheaper!

    I don't want to change anything on my bike, but would be keen to come over and socialise. I'll have my 5 and 7 year old with me, so probably wont stay too long.

    When is the BBQ starting, and what can we bring along to help?
