Good luck with the new R6. I'm guessing a name change is in order?

Congrats on the bike!!

OTOH - If you are talking about getting your suspension done at TPM by Glen, I say ya take a pass.....nothing against Glen but if you want it done right I suggest Thermosman www.thermosman.com or Pete Kates at GMD Boston or even Max at Traxxion. Anyone can do suspension but these guys are the guys who are tuning suspension for top guys in AMA, FUSA, WERA and CCS. They REALLY know what they are doing.

Just my .02

I could care less if they read it....the truth is that the guys I listed are suspension EXPERTS....period. Not that TPM cannot set up a good bike but those guys listed do it for a living and have been doing it on the top level for years.

Just go to www.amasuperbike.com and look at the results and who the people list as their suspension guys. Thermosman, Traxxion, GMD, CTR, Kyle Racing are all listed it there. The new AK 20 Axxion cartridige kits are getting great reviews and they are a true drop in kit and can be reused once you change bikes.

I look at it this way.....do it right the 1st time and work with the best you can afford.
