Who You Calling a Pig
Right I have got the new bike sitting in the shed, and I wouldnt mind a hand from sombody that knows what there doing to set up the suspension basics (Shaun helped my out previously with my SV and the difference that made was just unreal).
Quite happy to pay for a good experienced service, anybody recomend anyone?
For the record Qkkid was in my bed, not the other way round

another site !
The Speed 3 leaves a little to be desired with its front suspension but for road use its passable !
Get ya sags right and leave it soft i got told !
Thinking seriously about a dampner, seems a bit light without clamping the head bearings tight !

A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"
Bowls can wait !

Thanks for the advice guys. Getting a hand next week to sort it out myself (runs out to the shed to write down factory settings so he can reset it if he cocks it up).

Ahh yes, but it is still comming, and therfore I havent read it. Someone at the bike shop borrowed the maunal for my bike and now nobody is really to sure where it is, so I get one of the manuals form a shipment of bikes that is ment to be comming in this week.

(all from fully screwed in)
front preload 3 lines showing

Just went looking for the link but seems they have removed it and now want money lol lucky i saved it onto disc when i did !
If anyone (pumba) wants a service manual (the user manual might be just settings etc though the service dont even have the suspension settings lol) would be happy to email it to ya if ya pm me (18 mb pdf file)
