    Dennis Shaw, is a very cleaver nice guy. I would ride anything that he has worked on any where any time

    My own empirical studies ( actually not including Dennis ) and the lessons of history point to a direct correlation between vertical disposition and attention seeking. It would be a bit of an understatement to point out that Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, Napolean, Mussolini, Muldoon and Cullen all share similiar vertical disposition and are all the ultimate attention seekers. One hopes that the only one still alive in that group is also about to recieve the same ultimate rejection of those that pre-deceased him.

    I hope that the one in that group still alive gets the same treatment as Mussolini received at his ultimate demise!

    Rcktfsh's demeanour is directly related to the fact that his bike is running crappy Paoli suspension and he can't afford on the student allowance that we fund for him via the vile Dr.Cullen's taxes, to buy Ohlins.

    Before you judge a man, walk a mile in his shoes. After that, who cares? ...He's a mile away and you've got his shoes

    That would be highly appropriate.

    Ah given enough time every thread degenrates into basist, prejudist rantings! Now it's heightism. Wonderful.
    So, given that (pretty much) all the best motorcycle racers have been `of compact, economical proportions' we can dismiss most of motorcycle racings' victories as mere `attention seeking'. Brilliant.

    I concur
    It never ceases to amaze me the number of people who think I read KB RACING forums for their views on sex, politics, religion and law and order !!

    Well then it is your prerogative to agree , disagree, ignore and choose to vent your disapproval or otherwise. To my best knowledge we are not yet a fascist state but when that arrives in its ugliest state it may follow the examples of history with respect to vertical disposition, or lack thereof.

    I will accept no blame for starting what was a totally good natured ( and thanks to my chosen protestant anglo saxon god ) a totally un pc banter. I will accept full blame for continuing to milk it. The perpetrator is in fact lacking in height but has a lively sense of humour and is in no way burdened by bad manners or attitudinal ''throwing toys out of his cot'' antics at the flick of a switch, or other suchlike personality disorders.

    I employ a rather small person but he was employed not because of his height but because he is an extremely capable and very fastidious mechanic, first and foremost. It also rather helps that he largely has a quiet demeanour and likes the same background 60s / 70s / 80s music that I do. It also helps that he shares the same political views, actually I admit it, that helps a lot.

    I have worked with and or helped people that have serious jekyl and hyde personality disorders, short and tall. Equally distasteful and there is no justification for it, whatsoever.

    Most unlike you to "Milk" an un-PC topic for your own titilation Robert !
    If I remeber rightly, you and Dennis are about the same height., and given that you share similar political views ( quite dissimilar to mine, as you know), similar interests, and a similar taste in music, perhaps you should consider marriage in the near future ? it's a long road finding the perfect woman . . . . . . . .

    Lucky indeed ! And proof there is life beyond political viewpoint ! It did occure to me that we are fortunate that you come from a Protestant background, and are therefor conditioned to work your arse off with little expectation of reward. Imagine the Budhist take on your job - "the suspension is wrong and wrecked the tyre, but that's o'k because it'll come back as a better one" or Zenist - "it's all wrong, but that's the way it WANTS to be" or Catholic or Jewish " It doesn't work, and i feel SO guilty" or, lastly, the Scietologists view " It isn't working, but i know the Aliens will fix It". I think we can all be glad that you are who you are !

    First off, I must say I am VERY pleased with the quality of service and products that emanate from your workshop. My Hornet is vastly improved since I fitted one of your shocks and re-fitted the forks after your work on them.

    When I have learned enough to ask a meaning-full question about my bike's setup I will not hesitate to ask you (politely), for some advice/tips/tricks to get the most out of it.

    Sex, politics, religion, crime and punishment, Police powers, the size of Dr Cullen's brain versus his physical stature and the relative brain sizes of other past and potential Finance Ministers is an analysis that would be best carried out over a beer

    haha what a change in topic but it is rather amusing bar the fact of 60/70 and 80's music, that was a bit concerning to be honest,

    I mean the the 90's and today are were the good music is at.
