    How did you do it Robert Taylor?

    You finally talked Ten Kate into switching to Ohlins!

    Don't know but I'll happily switch if he gives me a 50% discount....

    I still blame Helen Clark for my lack of disposable income........

    Well they made that choice themselves after a torrid year of poor results on KYB.
    Like all teams on Ohlins they have to purchase the product and also pay a service contract fee for a full time technician at the meetings and for testing. About 100,000 euros service contract fee per annum.
    And look at the immediate result, Rea bagged a Superbike win and it could have been two!
    This augers well for Honda riders who work directly with CKT, I am off to Sweden in September and will be getting the latest setting info and upspecs.
    The rest of the WSBK and WSS season should be quite interesting!

    No he has loaned it to Phil Goff, deridingly referred to by our great leader during the budget debate as ''Whack it on the bill Phil! "
