Amazing! He’s a great coach, straight forward and honest. Even though my time with him was short, not one second of the whole hour was wasted. He gauges where you are skill wise and adjusts as needed. Got my list to work on. The videos are great!!! He is truly dedicated to helping riders in this industry.

Thanks for showing me the process of how to learn; having a ‘map’ of how to approach it. I understand it is a process and a dynamic one over time and changing conditions but now feel I have a better understanding of what/how and why each setting should be approached. I like starting with one thing and changing it 25% and then another +25%, making notes and arriving at too much one way or the other and then working back and forth in smaller increments to find the right setting. As my understanding grows and the fear of unknown goes away with experience I am now confident I will soon have a setup that both works and gets the bike geometry with me on it to work in balance. Today’s ride after two days worth of stop/settings change/start/stop was fantastic, best the bike has ever felt.

This fall I had the opportunity to ride a friend of mine's 2016 KTM Super Duke 1290 R. He went on vacation and left it in my garage for safe keeping.

The first time I took it out was the way he had set the bike up using some guidelines found on a web forum. Needless to say it was dangerous! It wouldn't hold a line and was bucking uncontrollably in the rear throughout corners.

I took it back home and out came the wrenches. I pretty much went down Dave's checklist from top to bottom: tire pressure, sag, compression, rebound, lever and bar position, etc. Needless to say it transformed the bike. It was now effortless going into corners and super confidence inspiring. I was pleased and very interested to see what the bike's owner thought.

When he returned from vacation I told him to ride it as it was and give me some feedback. I got a phone call the next day from him while he was mid ride. His words were, "What did you do? I can't believe this is the same bike. It rides so much better."

I told him the process I went through and that we can tweak it even more as we examine tire wear. I think he now understands how much the little things can make a huge difference.

Thanks Dave for setting up my bike at the track and for passing on some of the knowledge so that I can help others get the most from their bikes.

Hi Dave,

I used the little founded new knowledge to help setup an old R1 (2003 model) in Dubai. He kept insisting the suspension should be as hard as possible!

Not only were his forks set totally wrong and unevenly, but they were also pretty shot with sticking and obvious seal damage. I adjusted them as best as possible. The rear was actually pretty much ok and sag etc were also ok at the rear.

After adjustments the bike was firstly way, way safer and stopped properly. Once he rode it down the road he admitted the bike was much better handling.

Thanks to you I could do this.

I belong to a IAM club for Chelmsford, is there anything we could do to pass this sort of knowledge on to a bunch of riders ? Video ? Leaflets ?

Regards

Hi Dave,

Here's a busy Sunday I had back in June.

6pm Sunday I get a call on my cell, says its from Sweden. Broken English, "I'm calling about there tyres you have for sale."

"Yes, but I'm not posting them to Sweden!"

"No, I'm in Dover and going to the Isle of man TT and need a tyre, I'll collect it."

So 8pm a Swedish guy on a 2003 R1 turns up at my house with his father. He's just ridden from Stockholm to Germany then Cambridge today and his rear tyre is seriously showing canvas. He thinks he can get an emergency 24hr tyre guy to fit it, but he's got no chance and its a public holiday tomorrow. I call a few places and he could get a back street taxi shop to do it first thing Monday morning.

"When is your ferry to the Isle of Man?"

He's says " Tomorrow midday"

"You'll never make it to Liverpool in time"

So here we are now, 10pm Sunday night. I tell him I've changed a few motocross tyres I'm willing to give it a go...... Paddock stand out, tyre levers in hand, much swearing and fighting, no damage and a 190 tyre changed and he's sent on his way with a free squirt of chain lube.

The next day I receive a picture of the bikes strapped down, smiling faces and they're on the ferry to the greatest motorcycle race on earth!
