Motorcycle Suspension Dynamics Rider Matched

Motorcycle Chassis and Suspension re-engineered to match Rider attributes

Pictured below are snapshots of bikes in our workshop for 2nd and 19th September '09. Customers have chosen from available options according to level of performance required. All modifications mentioned make a huge difference in handling.


					Kawasaki H2R Racebike 1971 Chassis and Suspension Mods
			◄ Suzuki GSXR600 2007 Brett's GSXR being prepped for a Racebike with VP4 20mm Comp and Reb kits front and rear and SFV17 Shock flow valve

			◄ MV Agusta F4 2000 70kg Tom finds the MV's standard suspension too harsh for his use and wants it set for him to use for fast trackdays without the harshness
					Mods pics above and below: Peter Kay's H2R reproduction roadbike based frame was not suitable for use with the modern tyres available... ...So the overall frame design had to be altered. Motor position, rear suspension geometry and front suspension geometry has all been re-engineered; along with the exhaust system and suspension unit internals that have been upgraded to modern specs. With a lot more work still to be done (as can be seen in our pics) the Kawasaki H2R will soon be ready for an initial shake-down.
			◄ GasGas EC300 Nigel's GasGas EC300 needs the Marzocchi and Ohlins suspension freshened up and revalved to suit his improved riding skills.

			◄ Honda 750F 1988 Jason and his period class racebike are in for a suspension upgrade to Forks and Ohlins rear Shock, along with chassis mods to get it to steer too.

			◄ Honda CBR1000 '07 Revalve Front and Rear Revalve to make the CBR handle for ride day duties, especially when considering he's going to be using Supersport spec tyres.

			◄ Suzuki GSXR600 '05 Front revalve and rear revalve with SFV17 shock flow valve to remove squat for this Rideday special and probable Club Racer when the rideday bug is out of the way.

			◄ Kawasaki ZX6 '04 This recently purchased ZX6 is in for service and revalve for Ride days and a set of head stem bearings to make it steer properly.

			◄ Yamaha R6 2008 David Wu needs his newly purchased R6 lowered front and rear.

			◄ KTM 450EXC 2006 Tony has recently purchased the 450 and found the gearing too tall, not enough grip in the tyres and suspension springs and damping not looking after the control side on the bike. So we'll fix all of these and get his 115kg into a more comfortable and controlled ride.

			◄ 2 x KTM Adventure 990's '09 Pictured: 'Rottweiler' bike with Ridgeback dog ▼		► Workshop 02 September 2009

			Gary and Ian Rider of Rider Bros Motorcycle Training have these two Adventure bikes to play with when not teaching people how to ride a motorcycle. At 90kg and 115kg each, they both need springs and a revalve to give them better control doing 120kph+ feet-up power slides		► Workshop 19 September 2009
