    when I've had issuse's....tyre shear, excessive rear wheel slip,....[I] have at those two times talked too both as they we amicably working together at that stage....

    Robert: ask more questions to decipher rider babble! ask more questions about other end of bike to decipher more rider babble.

    Kerry: ask questions about what problem was....tell me how to counter that with smoother throttle application....because thats what he did when he rode 500 gp's [im not telling lies...and have found no record of him riding GP's ]....when that didn't work [probally because I thought he was full of shit]...he start telling me about when he was flying F16 intercepter fucking jet planes....so I knew he was full of shit....[disclaimer...a few people I know and are very talented swear by Kerry....but....he does not install confidence in me...I am not telling lies about what I have said....he is obviously a clever man...with a tounge that lets porkies roll of them]

    so my conclusion....talk to Robert Taylor, Ray Clee, Kerry Dukic, Norm Cobb, dude from rotorua [that does WP], Red Fenton [CHCH]....and make your own decision....in my personal conclusion....fucken hard to go past Robert Taylor and Ray clee....[not dealt with Red fento or Norn Cobb]...the key is really comunication with the tuner...if you can tell them what you feel...rather than what you THINK YOU FEEL...it will go along way...and TRUST THEM to change what they think...feeling something...learning to feel something...is critical to communicating to them whats acctually wrong...learning the difference between you blaming your own bike for your short comings....will make a massive difference to what your suspension tuner can do to improve your bike....

    and for the suspension tuners reading this...feel to a rider is gold....if you think they talking shit...give them better feel...and then decipher there babble
    but remember kerry betting rossi at the motor gp he was riding under another name then (-; so he must be the man

    Are you sure he said he flew F16s
    He could of said "after he did to much F2, he threw up and needed to go see the GP"

    im sure...rotund people may wobble a bit when sober....but often fall over when drunk....my summation is....he was not drunk...but I can not discount a bad pie or Chinese takeaway....therefor the GP [general practitioner] argument is valid...but highly unlikely...but would explain totally being full of shit?? in more than one way

    As a generalisation I think in any business interactions all parties should reasonably expect complete honesty. Sadly that is so often not the case when so many untruths are espoused. Where I think people try and create so much aura around themselves ''I've done this, I've done that and it progresses to even more fantastic levels you then have to think am I also being deliberately lied to?
    You either brush it off or you hold them in contempt.
    I think its entirely reasonable and prudent to not take any claims ( especially the wilder ones ) from anyone at face value and ask ''show me the proof''

    Is this thread still going? As a younger lad I was taken in by the stories of a couple of habitual liars (and no, not like that you pervie homos!). Their stories were fantastic & appealed to my greed as they could get me this or that at a super cheap price, or had one they no longer needed, so you want to believe.

    I've hardened & like to think I can pick a bull artist. Maybe I still miss the good ones, but erm say 5yrs ago a mate was telling me about some guy who seemed the real deal. Turns out I'd met him some years before, but I listened to him & had to leave the room laughing. I later went to tell my mate, who seemed quite put out. Nobody like to have their bubble burst.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Bull artists, - you'd have to have met Daytona to know what I'm talking about.


    Almost got a ride on a factory Suzuki, but they considered him too radical. True story [Tui Add].

    Shit I know just how Daytona feels.
    I too just narrowly missed out on a Factory Suzuki Ride after Kevin (Schwantz) retired
    The only thing that counted against me was my total lack of talent, willpower and guts. But other than that and i never was actually asked to try out I could have been er....in Hospital all the time and lapped frequently as well. But I could have been a Pretender. Don't even get me started about the politics that kept me out of GP racing.
    Just seen this "The Schwantz story" 1993 starts slow but worth a gander http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...Schwantz-story
