Title: suspension shops - bay area
Post by: crozzer on August 17, 2009, 06:56:53 PM
Hey folks.  Need to get the superbike suspension setup.
I'm considering using Catalyst (crstuning.com) or desmoto.
Any thoughts? Any others to consider?

You'd be better off asking this question in the MOB.

Some options are listed here: http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=562.0 (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=562.0)

Personally I can recommend Catalyst Reaction and Aftershocks.

Huge +1 to Catalyst Reactions.

The have set up both my Ducati and my BMW. Both bikes were set up by another shop and after talking to Doug (?) he adjusted a few things to better suit my riding style on both bikes. World better in all regards. They have been in the biz for so many years it's crazy.

Going to go through them to get my 900ss forks re valved and also to get the GS's front Öhlins rebuild (leaky seal).

Not to mention that there reasonably priced, although a bit hard to get a hold of.

I like Aftershocks Suspension (http://www.aftershocks-suspension.com (http://www.aftershocks-suspension.com)) for all of my suspension work.  I like them even more now that they're less than ten miles away in Livermore.  Phil Douglas, the one who does all of the work, can do magical things setting up a bike.  He's made a big difference in handling for both of my Ducatis.
