hey melkman....you might want to instead consider eric gray from GMD.  he attends all the florida regionals and some of the s.e. and wera events.  All of the Prieto bikes are optimized by GMD... All three bikes on the podium this weekend are Gmd suspension prepped bikes...as well as most of the bikes who took firsts....plus, he is trackside to assist in any geometry situations.....


GMD # is 954-786-2875

MAD props to thermosman on this one. He takes customer servie to a new level. Uses Ohlins bits. No matter what level you ride at, he really listens to what you tell him about what the bike is doing and then fixes it. My R6 is on absolute rails now. He even called me when I didn't show for a track day (bad weather) to make sure I was okay. He takes a personal interest in who he tunes for and knows you by name and bike. Pretty impressive. He's got my business from now on.

I definatly agree on Theromasman, awsome dude. I need my forks back asap and he had them back to me with time to spare. And to boot, it was the first time i was ever using him so he dident know me from a hole in the wall. did awsome work. and the ohlins internals are fantastic

If your in the Mid-atlantic or south east region go with Jon Tyus of www.cycletechracing.com He works with a lot of the AMA guys and Formula usa regulars.  He made me go a second a lap faster by just adjusting my suspension.  He also doesn't race anymore but he used to, so he knows how the bike should feel.  You tell him what its doing wrong and he corrects it.  I'll tell you what though, every track has a diiferent suspension setting or even valving.  Make sure you keep good notes of what track and what settings you have for each track.  Example: at VIR we need to put more pre-load in the front which is weird usually you just adjust compression and rebound.  But at most of the other tracks its just a click here or there, but to remember what to click and how much gets tiring, thats where your notes come into play.  Call or go to his website 865-579-1161

Ya thermosman is the only way to go...Mike ius awesome, real friendly, very knowledgeable, and so on.
Dont send your stuff to GMD In my own opinion...They did the so called "sweet numbers" on one of my team mates bikes and raised the forks in the trees like 3 inches...bike had no fricken feel whatsoever....we got it set at 9 m.m. above the trees and sooo much better, plus they charged him for straightening a bent fork which was NEVER bent
