unfortunately...I will be getting my new TZ 1.5 weeks before the first race at blackhawk. I will need to have some suspension work done since the bike will be setup for a Japanese smurf. I don't feel comfortable sending out the forks to any suspension tuner just incase I don't get it back by the race weekend. So I figure my best bet is to either take it to 4&6 which is 15 minutes from where I live or drive up to Milwaukee and go see Brian Baker. I will be getting the forks completely revalved and resprung for my weight. Who would you take it to? Anyone know what the turn around time is on suspension work?
I would just do it myself. :P
LOL! You think Brian would work on revalving a cartridge fork? If he did, the wheel would fall off!!
Does 4&6 have what you need in stock? How about Baker? What kind of turnaround can they give you?
It's always good to get out of town for a drive...just you and a few motorcycle parts to talk to.

I can just hear that conversation. "Oh my pretty and expensive new parts. You've got to help me. These two fat guys on vintage bikes keep whuppin my @$$. Every time I spend two grand and find another second, they step up their riding and pass me again!"
The part gleams expensively on the passenger's seat, saying nothing...
LOL! Hey K3, they may not say much, but they listened, didn't they? ;D
numbskullz-113, sorry I missed the joke.
this is what I do for a living, rebuild racing suspension.
I have done many TZ's, and yes I can have everything done in a few days.

I've never even taken fork apart in my life. As a matter of fact.. I've never even changed oil in my forks. Where's my tank decal? ;)

And then Casper and I stepped up again... What are you going to do this year without me to race against and outspend? I almost feel bad for changing classes!

I misread his comment at first too. numbskulz was responding to TZ_Boy's suggestion that
Brian "Super_Duck" do his own work, not to having
Brian Baker do the work. I think it was a dig at Super_Duck, not you.

trip out on this...
i think TZ_Boy is another Brian.......
maybe not,
oooooooooooh, forgot about my water im boiling for maa oodles u noooodles
Quotehey,

Yep it was toward me. >:( What's a guy have to do to get some respect?
tz boy is not a rev. or a dentist.
Superduck,
I'll see you sun. 1hour before the race, you dig?

The 250GP race is at 10:30am that's what you're coming to watch right?
LOL!!! Ooops, sorry Brian "Baker", I did not mean you. I meant Brian Kwak, like it was already stated. In other words, my point was that maybe it's not a bad idea to drive it up to you instead of having 4&6 do it...even though they are only 15 minutes away.
I know "BRG" can do good suspension work...and great tire warmers ;)
BTW, Baker, this is Edgar, CCS #113. Take care.
Cool, Cool. ;D
Baker
Rev Kwak are you having a Daytona 200 party and you didn't invite me? I'll bet you have a big screen to. I have your sticker's/decal's where's the TZ?
Actually having a 200 party sounds like a good idea!
