Buy a Maxton or Ohlins!

I have a friend who does mine. He used run a bike shop, Ohlins trained, franchised by K-tech. Does it on the side now as a hobby so he won't rip you off. Bit of a find really.

I felt like the front was pushing all the time and that was a combination of tyre wear and the forks being too hard etc. I was really disappointed with the handling of a 996 to the point where I was considering shopping it ...

I'm glad I didn't, it's so stable and confidence inspiring now.

Tony, did HM Racing do any work on the Front Showa's or did they just make adjustments to the forks ?

Just a setup, no service or anything like that.
