Good day guys and gals,

im thinking about having the vara's suspension revalved and shimmed etc etc...
the bike goes leke on tar and long strecthes of road.
but when the road gets bumpy or turns to dirtroads, the sups is very very hard and stiff.

im a light bloke...85kg's.

and the bike with all the k@k on it is about 250kg(estimated)... bloody heavy.

so a more plush susp setup will be easier to maneuvre the bike around on dirt and single track.
i have made peace with the fact that the bike wont be sold in the near future, will loose a sh1tload on what i can getfor it vs what i owe on it.

plz lemme know if any good place comes to mind.
there is a place in cape town .. and Bud500 suggested that i have someone take the susp off of the bike and courrier it to the guys at cape town and reassemble the bike for me,
someone like Runner or some other WD with a workshop.

thx in advance
