After having the bike featured in last March`s Practical Sportsbikes, the guy who done the piece was impressed how close to factory the bike was. So when it came to get the rear shock done, I wanted to keep it stock if possible. After being told by a few other suspension companies that they don`t refurb OEM shocks, I found TW Suspension on the net & decided to give them a call.
One phone call later after being assured it wasn`t a problem to do, I sent it off. When I received it back I was really blown away with the work done, the level of care & workmanship was outstanding. It looks like an off the shelf new one. Can`t wait to get it fitted & out on the road. Thanks Guys !

Many thanks for the great service sorting out my Honda CBR1100 rear shock.
A very quick turnaround by a friendly, highly qualified and skilled suspension speciallist. What more could you want?
Cheers

New Nitron Track Shock Fitted & Full Fork Tune
Hi Teut,
Enjoyed the ride home - what a revelation! I now think I understand what it means when I hear people talk about the bike feeling 'planted'. Everything felt so stable, unflustered and reassuring. There are a few bits of nasty tarmac on the roads near to my house that I have learnt to respect but this time it was a whole different story. The bike just took it in its stride and I didn't feel as though I had to provide any real input. Corners feel so much better - I am not a great rider but I thoght that I was able to take corners with far more confidence and more impressive lean angles!!
I also found that it was so easy to adjust the compression 'on the go' just by reaching down to the adjuster - so I had a bit of a play about with that and could immediately notice the changes. I need a bit longer with this to suss it out.
All in all - I am extremely happy!! Don't -

Full Fork Tune and Shock Re-valve & Rebuild
After an accident in 2011 and not riding a bike for over 2 years I decided to see if I still had the ability to race, so I decided to get the suspension rebuilt because the bike had been stood for over 2 years & so I couldn’t blame the bike if I didn’t have a good day. I have had the suspension rebuilt and set-up by other suspension technicians in the past and been happyish with the result, but heard about Teut at TW Suspension Tech in Preston, so I rang him, liked what I heard and popped around with the bike. He checked, measured, logged everything and asked about what was happening with the the bike on track, my weight and preferences were logged.
I brought my old leaking Fox Twin Clicker shock and forks to Teut to fully tune and rebuild. Once they were refit in the bike he set my bike up correctly.
Then I was off to a cold greasy November day at Oulton Park. To my surprise I had a good ear

Even though Teut was very busy he still managed to fit me in at short notice. On arrival he offered me a brew and asked what I was looking to get from the new set up and how the bike was in its current set up. After Teut had set up both the front and rear suspension he told me to go for a ride and come back and report my findings. Fortunately there is a road close by that has a series of tight bends and some faster sweeping ones plus many bumps to fully test out the new suspension settings. The rear of the bike had been transformed which resulted in a far less harsh ride and more feedback as a result. The front was better but I felt there was a few more tweaks required. I reported back to Teut and he made a few more minor adjustments and off I went again. Straight away I knew this was right and bumps in the road were far less noticeable and the bike seemed to glide over them. I reported back with a big smile on my face and talked to Teut about how much better everything felt and how the

I arrived at TW Suspension to find Teut just arriving himself. He immediately made me feel welcome and showed me around his man-cave / workshop. It was as if we had been friends for years. I have a Fireblade 08 and he immediately set the rebound, compression and preload as by magic. Then we did some measurements together as he explained what he was doing. Then more adjustments in line with the measurements and the discussion on my requirements and riding style , (which was mainly road but with the odd track day). I went for a quick spin which immediately told me Teut has a magic touch. My bike gave me much more confidence, it rode the bumps and holes in our horrid UK roads so much better. This consequently gives me more confidence in tipping the bike into corners as I no longer worry about the road conditions. Wet riding also suddenly became a joy ! A Sunday ride to Devils bridge and and I was hooked; even hitting cattle grids with more confidence !

Teut is a legend.
Set up my hyper, which until taking it to him I was a little twitchy, particularly in bends if there was any kind of bump or lump in the surface.
I'd just accepted it really and for one reason or another had always put off getting it set up properly.
Anyway took it for a test after Teut had spent 30 minutes on it and the difference was unbelievable - the bike seemed to eat up bumps and was so much more stable when throwing it round corners. I really didn't think a suspension set up could make such a difference, how wrong I was.
Sadly in ducati style I didn't even make it back to his house as my gear selector return spring (I hope it's just this! :-s) went bang and I was left without any gears about 2 miles from him.
Teut however came to rescue me, we nursed the bike back to his and then gave me lift 10 miles down the road.
The nicest guy you'll meet and a genius.
I can't say thank you enough - hopefully I'll have the bike back soon -

I was experiencing issues with my Ducati Multistrada 1200 base model handeling, suffering with high speed wallowing. I was given the details for Teut and took my bike down to him. He set my bike up and transformed it into what felt like another bike. It handled amazingly, I was thrilled to bits with it! Highly recommended. Great Service, outstanding knowledge of bikes!
Many thanks.

I Took my Ducati 996 to Teut for a check of the suspension settings before he rebuilds the forks and rear shock. I highlighted the main problem I was having with the front end and even though I didn’t explain it in technical terms he knew what I meant. Teut then went about tweeking the suspension settings. I took it out for a test run and the front end felt transformed. Teut is a very open and honest guy and will not give you misleading information or try to talk you into buying things you don’t need. He explained to me that my bike was not very far off the ideal settings for me (for road use) but with a couple of clicks here and there he could get it much better without changing any springs or even servicing the suspension which I think is very creditable. However, I will be taking my forks and shock back to him for a winter service and to possibly change the front springs to suit my weight if needed, but I intended to hav

"the thing that was most noticeable about Teut wasn't his undoubted knowledge but his passion about what he does, he was more concerned about getting the bike just how I would like it, than I was"
