Had The Suspension Set Up
On the sv1000s today...Pappa John and Robbie from Washington Cycle Works set up the suspension to my weight...bike rides like its on rails...All set for Deals Gap...for those who never set up their suspension to their weight, I highly suggest you do so...makes a world of difference...

Awesome -- we'll head to WCW when you guys get back so I can get mine done as well. I'm not nearly as strong a rider as you guys are, but maybe an adjustment will help alleviate some of the stiffness I'm feeling in the bike.

I really liked what WCW did for my SV....definately felt way different from what the factory had it set too.

Definitely...factory settings I believe are for a 170lb. rider(I'm 200)...and the front was to mushy too...now shes all set.

Riding style isn't even a factor...whether you're hittin the hard back roads or cruisin down the highway, the right suspension settings will make it all that much easier. Before I had it done I noticed when leaned over, I had to almost fight the bike to come back up...now...I can tip 'er into a nice sweeper...let go of the bars and she'll stay there like on a rail...then come right back up when I need to...effortlessly...We'll definitely set up a day to go...it'll feel like a whole new bike.

It will be the best money you spent and the difference it makes is incredible

I've done many suspension set-ups for customers at work, as well as for others outside, and I can almost gaurantee the first thing out of everybody's mouth, whether on the track or on the street, is always "wow, it's like a whole different bike"
Amazing when you ride a bike the way it's supposed to feel, so worth it.
