    Hi guys looking to get my suspension set up before Silverstone in May. Anyone know a good company in Hampshire? I'm based in Fareham

    Hi Simon

    Your be better off having it set up when your at the track as the there will be a big difference between track and road settings, or make your own adjustments once you have set your static and riders sag up.

    Thanks for the tip, just worried it will take ages at the track as loads of people will be having it done?

    Arthur is in the Bordon area and would be able to give you a good start point. You'd likely have to fettle it at the track as its quite fast, flat and yet watching the BSB this weekend...very bumpy on corner entry; even worse than in previous years.

    Was there last July and loved it! Can't wait to get back next month, makes me hate riding on the road though, would much prefer to have a track bike and just do as many tracks as I can

    Mike will set up your bike for track no probs. he's very very good - tell him exactly what your up to and he will do it to your requirements / and experience etc

    Arthur set mine up for me, massive improvement, I think he has a lot on at the mo but it's worth a shot

    I'm going to try RaceLab suspension in Wimborne in the near future, not too far from you and I'm sure someone on here recommended them.
