suspension
Again we are looking at
something that has been designed
for the flat track racing concept
and anything you go over and I
mean anything leaves a whack in
the arse like something just broke,
you may not be sure if it’s your
spine or the bike but something
just went bang! What is does
allow from the upside down
Kayaba 41 mm fork and the
Kayaba rear shock, pre-load
adjustable spring is flickability.
This bike grips the road and
corners are a breeze as you get
very little travel at speed on the
apex.
That’s great fun and puts a
massive smile on your face as you
click up and down the gears for
the secure play the suspension
gives you but after an hour or so…
I was kind of done with that and
wanted to head off 120 miles into
Cumbria. With a heavy roll of my
shoulders it seemed a bit a chore.
This was after the education of
hitting a rather ‘soft’ pothole and
having to check my coccyx was
still attached.
