His do too, but shall we say they have a slightly different slant.

Well yep, a little. Have set everything to vanilla beige. All adjustments are now in the middle of their range. That's better than it was. I think someone read that race bikes have hard suspension so everything was cranked up as tight as it could be.

Getting all scientific next ... have all the preload, rebound and compression settings but preload is first. It's arse is way in the air, it compresses front/back at different rates ... it's just a mess but on the way to getting better.

I was there a couple of weeks ago. Rented a car to visit some friends in the Wairarapa. The Japs don't make 4WD's like they used too so I handed it back pretty fucked up. Gotta love rentals.

Anyway, I've bought some land in the Rapa so you'll be seeing a bit more of me soon.
