[Twinfan]

Anywhere know where I can get my bike setup to suit my weight/riding style in the NW? I don't want shock or fork rebuilds, just to get the best out of what I have by dropping the forks/raising rear ride height/adjusting settings etc.

I think Kais might do such a thing? Anywhere else?

If its just geometry, sag, fork height etc i can do it for free Seriously, if you wanna hand have a ride up, I've got spare springs (64/70/75) for the rear shock you can try if we can't get sag right. nice road to test them on as well

[Twinfan]

Gizmo, I may well take you up on that! I know it's only basic stuff, but I'd need a hand with it all. You sure you're up for it? I reckon I can throw in a few beer tokens as thanks

[Gizmo]

yeah, no probs, got all the tools here, it'll only take a few hours depending upon what you wanna do. Beer is off the menu right now but coffee tokens have a similar exchange rate

let me know when you wana come up, meant to be picking me new multistrada up this Saturday so thats out but any time other than that is ok.

Not that badly damaged but insurance wrote it off last week, bike got taken away Thursday.

i know its there somewhere, actually thought of an easier way, just do the fixed end bolt and put an appropriate sized pencil through other eye, draw a radius and measure the distance from fixed end, doh, even less drilling needed
