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.

Dave set up my bike the improvement is unbelievable, I’d recommend anyone who rides get it set up by dave.

Okay so after about an hour fiddling with all the different screws and actually finding the original manual I think I've got it dialed in just right ! Just underneath the front forks is the dumping or rebound settings I screwed them all the way clockwise and then turn them 3 clicks back the same with the rear shock. Went out for 5 minute ride over some pretty awful Terrain and the suspension didn't bottom out like before ! Definitely a new experience for me rebuilding engines and electrical systems no problem but suspension that was a another learning curve. I'm actually located in Peru and finding a really good mechanic here is very difficult. Not like in England where I can just pop down the road. If you ever find yourself in the Peruvian mountains buddy come for a ride

A YouTuber can get a million views test riding the latest superbike from viewers who couldn’t afford one or keep one upright. Which just goes to show dreams are free. I have just put $3500 worth of suspension on my 300cc track bike. The annual subscription to DMT is about the same as 1 hour charge from a suspension tech. To me that’s epic value. Am sure if Dave’s goal was to make millions off social media instead of saving lives and making people faster he would do it all quite differently…

Mick Hoving

just measured the static sag on the forks and found it had 5mm and hard as a rock. So I started off with zero preload and zero rebound and got the forks sorted!! Just got to work on the Ohlins TTX shock now. Will replace the fork oil and get the rear shock oil replaced, I'd do it myself but I don't have the specialist tooling. Bike has 21,000km on it and unsure of its past maintenance record. I'd just like to thank you for your experience. You are definitely the god of suspension!!!

Rick Troiani

Damn you and thank you! Lol. I spent an hour with my Triumph Bonneville trying to slide the forks up including a long pipe clamp and a ratchet strap, no luck. Watched the first few minutes seeing you explain the friction and wiggle the shock, went to the garage and was finished in five minutes, thank you!!!

Sandro Correa

I have a low speed wobble and could never figure it out until you just explained it to me thru your video. never really scared me but didn't understand why it was happening but after you explained that your suspension has a lot to do with the wobbles it makes total sense thanks for clearing up my mystery!!!

subpoppy

Dave doing his thing. was there at the beginning. Dave has forgotten more about basic suspension tuning that most of know. It aint rocket science but he's brutally honest and focused. And I dig his style.

Chris Stanoyevic

@Dave Moss Tuning I’ve watched a ton of your videos. You’re the man! Thought the owner could have been better prepared with all info on the bike. I recently set my Ohvale suspension. Made a HUGE difference.

Daren Cummings

It's worth the money to get access to all the full videos. That said I watched the free clips for months on end and learned a lot before I paid, you just have to pay attention. @Dave Moss Tuning I appreciate the info you put out in your videos, whether clips or full vids.

Pierre Bujold

All very logical and a must for comfort and safety. Analogy with my bicycle took over an hour to adjust many point to enable cycling for 4-5 hours of comfort and safety. Great video and explanations.

Dara

Watching Dave adjust this bike for Victor was like watching a high-end suit Taylor custom make a suit for someone to fit them perfectly. All bike shops should have one or 2 employees who have studied under Dave to set their customers up correctly when they buy a bike.

Phillip Artweger (Remote Tune)

Hey Dave !

As temps came down a lot and the bike felt too stiff. I went and completely reset the suspension as I had a lot of sag before. I wound in 2 turns of preload in the rear and after finding out I had no preload up front I also added 1 turn in front.

Then opened up front comp and rebound and finally ended up with a rebound setting 5 more open than before set the rear to match the rising rate and also opened rebound.

Going for a test ride today I found the suspension much better, ended up adding more preload up front for braking support. After about 250km I checked the tires and lo and behold the rear had almost completely healed itself from the “fast” rebound wear.

I think with my suspension choked as it was the tire was doing a lot of the rebounding.

I had a blast.. sometimes it really takes a step back and reset/rethink to not get stuck

in some blind ally.

Evan Bates, 2020 ZX6R (Remote Tune)

Dave,

Thank you!

You’ve confirmed my suspicions. I appreciate your response and highly value your wealth of knowledge. I’m going to go for 1.0 rate fork springs paired with 10w motul oil and an 11.6 rate shock spring. I’ll be looking to do that soon because I’m tired of riding a “wet noodle” as you accurately described it.

Thank you for always going the extra mile to make sure us others have a better understanding of suspension and a better riding experience.
