Or, just get driven around in the back of that pimp-tastic S90 that was at the Berry's day, that thing was sweet, even if it did have less boot space than a smart car!

I emailed him on behalf of someone else, and also PM'd him on Tbricks, and never heard back from him!!!

Cant remember what it was we were after though

Ex850R

I have emailed Ben a few times , nice guy , try again , he was brilliant in sending my stuff.

I wonder f his spidey senses knew who I was messaging on behalf of and didn't wanna play ball or something!!!

Mind you, this was something like 6 or 7 years ago I'd reckon

I sold off my billstein's and currently run koni adjustable.
And have the camber top plad mod done. But still want a nicer suspension set. (Higher rate coils) or coil over. I'm getting to the point where I'm about to say F it, and bag my damn ride. At least then if I need to go stiffer I have the ability

You want to make your car stupid low though Jay.

Mine just happens to go fast at the drags. People who say it's not a skill have never done it and ran good times. It is a multipurpose tool but too heavy to be a track car anyway. But with monotube bilstien hds and once springs are sorted with Ash it will also be faster on a track anyway ;)

Ex850R

Yeah , get it set well and it will be faster , a harsh , low ,siff ride doesnt mean fast or handle well , it bangs and crashes on the road and you actualy have LESS control...
Ash has done suspension 101 on here before.

Vee_Que

Yep. And most people ever go to track days with a car. Apparently for Jay the Buell is for going fast anyway :p

Get a new front tyre , you repair motorbike tyres , not if you value life anyway.

as for repairs. there is a 100% safe and legal way to repair it. and i have done it a handful of times. (moto tyre centres do it) and they will only do it if its with in the 25% of centre.

+ the hole is 1mm wire. (looks like a wrap around type circlip.
