Re: Suspension query

hi David, Ive had the opportunity now to ride TLS's with the std
rotary, White Power, Ohlins and my own unit and a TLR with std rotary
& the Hagon unit, bottom line is both the TLS & TLR rotary's are as
bad as each other, bloody scary & totally unpredictable, typical dopey
b*std that I am I thought ..they cant be that bad, I even tried them
less the steering dampers to get a true response ... aargh.. dont go
there.. I have to say the Ohlins is the best I have tried, so supple &
responsive yet totally under control, it completely transforms the
bike, but I also have to say Hagons dont half run it close, they have
after all developed it from a Koni unit which is what Maxton use.. if
you are any where near Hertfordshire you are more than welcome to try
it for yourself, I rate it & will be keeping one on my own TLS,
incidently Hagons also do progressive spring kit for the bike as well,
I can get 10% off their products for TAS members, I'm going to try &
sell my old WP unit & the TEK unit on ebay if you are interested,
regards, Geoff
