  1. Just had a set of tyres fitted to my 848 but have been told my front wheel is buckled,so on the lookout for another one,is the 1098 front wheel the same as the 848 ?.I have also read that bike front wheels can be straightened,has anyone had this done?.
    cheers Simon

  4. As far as I am aware Steve (ST) is OK......MCT suspension specialist on my doorstep uses him a lot (race bikes etc).

    There is also Motoliner in Maidstone if you want to send it by post.....possibly better and cheaper than Hagon.

    Motoliner straightened three front wheels for me, fitted tyre and balance to one (after removing tyre in the first place and checked / minor straighten of an ally swingarm.......£150............But I took them there.
