Post by: spyderchick on March 07, 2005, 09:57:58 AM
And he might actually tell you some of them  ;D

Motorcycle performance in Madison is holding a basic suspension clinic, given by none other than the famous (or infamous) Ed Key, on March 19th

Go to //www.motorcycleperf.com to get more info. You must email them to reserve a spot and it's limited to 30 people.

Kim Olsen and I will be there.  Alexa, will you be making leather deliveries that day?  And how about a pickup?  I sold a ragged old suit I had, and the guy would like it mended.

So maybe I can introduce myself. I already met Kim, but briefly.

I'll be delivering Kim's suit, but your's will have to wait a bit to see about the color you wanted. You know you'll have it in time to ride.  ::)

Sheesh, racers, they want everything yesterday. Chris, lucky for you that I like you. If I didn't I might have to hold on to these old Vanson's 'til after Road A.  :o ;) ;D

K3 & KB,

See whether they'll allow you to tape Ed's message.  Either way, take copious notes and share them with little ole H. ;D

Remember what Ed always says.....

"Advise is only is only as good as the amount you pay for it."

... or something like that.

I hope you got some answers to your front suspension questions.  Did you discuss your bike's ride height settings with him?
I've gotta get someone to recap what he said.
You guy on that side of the lake have all the fun.

Don't worry about it Don, we didn't go either.

With 12+ inches of snow and 20 mph winds...  Paul was busy plowing.

Soak in?  Trying not to drown is more like it.  That was the best info I've ever recieved, and I have stacks of articles on the subject.

I got alot of answers that I was looking for. I took down as many notes as I mentally could. I know how to set up my suspension basically, but sadle time and alot of playing and tinkering is what will make me faster.

My Brain feels like an oversaturated sponge after hearing all the information Ed had.

The thing is, Ed learned all this thru years of experience, and I know now that I will only learn it in my own way thru years of experience myself. I have a long way to go.

Good to see everyone, thanks for the great Wisconsin Hospitality!

K3! Looking foward to reading the article in Chicagoland Motorsports News!

OH, and when will Ed's Material be for sale?  ;D

I'm devistated!   I'm heartbroken Kim.

Meeting you that night at the banquet meant/means so much to me.  You mean to say you wouldn't recognize me if I stood next to you?  [Hmmm... he thinks to himself.  That may not be such a bad thing].

Signed,

Given who was over by your pit at the STT G-man event last year, I'm not so sure I'd readily agree.


No, no.  Not later in the day when you were kickin' back with Jack and Don.  I mean earlier in the day. ;)
