    Suspension specialists in Perth?

    Hi guys, I had a quick look around but to no avail! I'm looking for a company that can set up my bikes suspension for me! I had it done in the UK and it transformed my bike so I'm looking for a company that can do it for me over here, as I'll admit I don't really know what I'm doing.

    Cheaper the better, I'm not looking for a company where they asses you on track or anything as my bike probably won't be going on the track any time soon, just some people who know what they are upto

    Thanks guys!

    Marty Moose will be able to help you with basic set-up (adjustments, static sag). He will then recommend you to Russell Speak at Dynotime of you require different springs etc.....

    MM will do springs etc on forks (done mine on 2 dif bikes), inc revalving & cartridge install; shocks he's not set up for any where near as well, especially with gas recharges etc. That said he does mostly baslining stock setups & mods where required if stock setup can't bring the suspension settings to where they need to be to suit the rider.

    If you need work that is more complex or involved then Dynotime.

    Thanks for the responses guys! I'm not quite looking for mega changes, just a fast road setup. On my GSXR they put a massive washer (diameter of the spring) on top of the spring to help it twist under compression. Little things like that, I don't think I'm leaning towards fork re-springs or anything as my understanding is:

    A ) I'm only 11.5st

    B ) I don't have the ability to warrant it (personally)

    So ideally an afternoon or so should see me well with this Marty guy! can anyone point me in the direction of this marty Moose guy please? Thanks again guys!
