Hi Plan to remove forks and shock from my Daytona 955i after the summer and get them rebuilt and set-up for my riding style and weight. Anyone recommend any place that does this? UK, East Midlands would be best, but if I have to post them off, that's OK. Cheers for any input! DS
I had my race bike forks & shock (Ohlins) done by RaceLab in Wimbourne, he attends most MSV trackdays as their suspension specialist. They did a good job in getting it done to suit my weight, not sure if the Daytona shock is rebuild-able but certainly the forks won't be an issue. Cost for service, re valve & new heavier Ohlins springs was £470 with units taken to them loose. https://www.racelab.co.uk/
That’s about the same price I paid at TW Suspension in Preston. https://www.twsuspensiontech.co.uk/ Teut who runs it (yeah I’d never met anyone called that either ) is a knowledgeable guy, and they also do suspension services at race meetings/track days. He did my Daytona forks, revalved and new springs from K-Tech plus a clean/service. Good turnaround times too.
best work he’s done for me was my Daytona 675 front end by new valves and shims what a transformation.
I have long said it mate, best money you will ever spend is on suspension, be faster everywhere not just down the straights.
Thanks for the input guys - seems a few to consider TW were already on my list. I'll let you know how I get on DS
I used this guy when I had my STriple set up for me, he does race meetings as well I believe. https://www.ssr-suspension.uk/
