Honda CBR 600 FW 1998

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 early pace and was happy. Teut rang to see how I was going on (he knew I was nervous after not riding for so long) and told me to do a minor tweak. By the end of the day I was running with the advance group, nobody over took me and I was lapping bikes and over taking them with ease. I was so relax and confident with the bike, I knew I was getting quicker all the time with each lap and kept telling myself to calm down it was the best I have ever ridden (what a high) and when the chequered flag came out I didn’t what to stop.

Teut has the passion and the knowledge, all I asked for was for the bike to be better than me and he certainty achieved that and more. I don’t write reviews normally but this is well deserved. The bike is amazing it’s down to me now, bring on the 2014 season.

Massive thanks Teut
