"the system 'irons' out these uneven surfaces" mine doesn't seem to, before I picked it up today I felt every ripple, dimple and kink in the road, does seem a bit better this evening but still not as good as when I first collected it before I did the battery disconnect, dealer says its running as expected and they compared it with their demo back so only option is another dealers opinion if still not happy with it, as it stands Ohlins with SCU gives a far better ride, love to know what's changed since I collected it as the ride was really smooth, now I,m just getting more pi@'ed off with it
ok...just thought of another test, the suspension is inactive/solid/still when the bike is not 'fired up' right?...when the bikes started and your sat on it is the suspension reacting to your weight/body movements?...if so I'm guessing it's working! v
I,ll let you know tomorrow when I get to have a play with it, in the meantime sit back and wait for the wisecracks to start regarding your description lol, thanks for sticking at it Bradders
Yep, solid when off, then reactive when ignition is on and when engine is running, before I got it back it stiffened up once on the move and remained rock solid and harsh, seems a bit better now but not what it should be compared with other sky hooks I've ridden, any local boys near Bristol want to try it out for comparison!
....before you reply with an innuendo.....Yes it does! I usually try this process late at night! Urban to Sport TO Enduro! Yippee. Keep us posted.
Bradders/Kingfixer, defiantly up for a meet on Saturday to do comparisons, interesting that you have a similar problem King, you been dealing with Riders Bristol??
I haven't had a chance yet, things are so busy at work I haven't had a chance, but yes riders would be where I go normally, but if I'm being honest I don't find them the best. But where else ??
...I'm in Cornwall but would be willing to ride your way (saturday) on my GT to compare bikes/ride if you consider riding West towards Exeter, please!
My way is east Hampshire! Lol If weathers good am happy to ride 2 hrs or so to a meet point Sat, wherever doesnt bother me long as the roads there are good enough and not mway type shit
I,m piggy in the middle of you 2 as based near Bristol, Exeter is as easy for me as is Marlborough so can meet up with either of you, open to suggestions
Yeovil then...there is a maccy d's there from memory on the a30 and means I can do that nice fast road from salisbury and go back via the southern loop I'll head from Loomies at around 1000 and be there by 1200 ish, if anyone else fancies tagging along Weather still looks best day of the weekend
See what VJ thinks, if he cant make it I'll still come over to Marlborough, both nice rides for me. Over to VJ
Hi guys, sorry for late reply been busy with work stuff. All being well should be able to meet saturday, weather looks good as well, not that a bit of rain puts me off.
