near robbinsville close to the gap. If you are at the gap, head down 129 and it's on the right, right before you get to robbinsville. It's a blue garage. Ken Wheeler is pretty freakin cool dude too.

Hey Trip,when we go to the Gap,I'd like to stop there to have Wheeler double check my settings. Should I make an appointment and if so,do you have the number handy? It's been YEARS since I've been by there,is it the same guys running it all this time?

Hmmm....I know there's probably not much that can be done to my bike, but it would be cool if he'd look at it at least. Tigger, I'll race you to him!

You would be wasting money with the SV, you need to change the shock and springs to have any kind of impact on it.

I have a rear shock off a gix...just never installed it. According to SVR, I really don't need it for my weight...the stock shock is fine, but needs to be adjusted in properly. My bike is still pretty much on stock settings now.

I do have thicker fork oil. I changed that when I replaced the fork seals.

Actually Rogue, someone who has some suspension rebuild experience could fix you right up. I had RaceTech put fork spring preload adj. (now stock on the 650) cartridge emulators, stiffer springs, and heavier oil in my front and a FOX Shock in the rear and there was a huge difference to stock. My SV 650 ruled on the bumpy CMRA racetracks!
