    You are correct and i did not mean to upset any one my only point was
    That every time some one runs a thread asking where they should go
    get there suspention done alot of people says go to Les is is the best.
    I post try FBF and then i watch as the person who asked where they should go says ok i will try Les
    Just wanted to make a point how well my set has worked for me
    Once again you are correct i should have read the thread again before i posted.

    No problem and no one is upset just pointing out that this was a thread started to thank Les for his efforts not a thread asking who is the best suspension shop.

    JK,
    FBF did my 06TE450 with great results and I was always a Factory Connection guy before that (my 04TC450 and many KTMs before that with super support from Rick's team), I came very close to working with FC but decided to go with FBF,,,for me at higher speeds and with alot of LSCD hilly stuff the FBF set up was good,,but for tighter more technical tecate type stuff I never came grips with the HSCD valving,, but again Eraldo was always available to discuss and work with me. So there are many valuable choices out there,,,,for example if MB1 dialed in HSQ stuff I might be in line, Mike is genius and his CRFx set up was the best ride ever over everything. JK your results speak for themselves and the FBF set up as well I for one have great respect for your talent. I just wanted to give a shot out to different tuner this time and payed attention to the level of and the terrain of the NW guys and their choices so I went with LT-Racing, and this was as K wrote just a thank-you note deal. JK see ya at the Rynoland Nat HS? The 125 will rock up there,,its very tight through the manzanita ask Los anciano Don C .

    Another satisfied customer of Les. I shipped them off to him to get re-sprung and re-valved. He knows his stuff. It turns out that there was a HUGE difference in the internal settings between the left and right forks. He really knows his stuff and worked with me to get the settings just right. I feel like it's a whole new bike now! It just soaks everything up and feels like I am riding on rails. The tires feel stuck to the ground. Between the suspension being done, and the new Up-Tite throttle tube, I have fallen in love all over again with this bike.

    I am a very happy customer as well! Got mine back a couple weeks ago. I have had it out for a few short rips and there is a noticeable difference, can't wait to get out for an extended ride.

    I have a new 610 and les lowered it 1 1/2" and installed comp. adj. for short legs and improved ride. So far great, the ride height is perfect for me and have about 150 miles on the bike. To much snow yet to get much off road in. However the bike is working great on the stuff I have been on. I tried to go offroad a little today and ended doing a lot of pushing in the snow. Oh well, its been a long winter so I did not mind to much.

    Took it out for about 40 miles today at Carnigie OHV, I am very pleased. All the stuff I had issues with are gone. Bike tracks great and no rear hop anymore, very plush!!! Thank you Les

    bought some stuff from him in the past. got good info from him for my new 610, will be using him again. :thumbsup:

    Huskys are always set up for really really really fat americans. IMO all modern Huskys need to have the suspension re-done, both springs and valving.

    Perhaps the new TXC bikes are an exception.

    Had time to put a few hours on the shocks and forks after LTR worked on them...WOW!!! would be an understatement. Nicely balanced front to rear, smooth and buttery yet soak up big stuff. I came up short on a double on the practice track and thought it would case out or kick me off..NOPE!, hardly noticed...:thumbsup:

    One more thank you to Les! :cheers:

    I'll be seeing Les at the Taskys demo day this weekend. I'll tell him how you all love his chit, as if he didn't already know.

    OK I guess I will stop riding this fine machine and say very, very nice ride now and getting nicer as I get on it harder. The lowering has helped me a bunch (real short here) I feel that this has tamed my TXC450 down and has given me a great ride. Thanks again Les!!

    • How much is shipping?
    • How many are you going to do?
    • How soon do you want them done?

    Last bike.
    About 100+ for "them" to pack and with over 3k insurance.
    No big rush.

    At some point, if enough people are going to have their suspension done from this area, someone could drive them up there for less than the price of postage.

    $43?.....think I'll ck out FedX next time.

    I put my forks/shock in a hard plastic gun case, UPS Store then had to use two boxes to wrap that + also $3k ins, and stuck me for $120 (from Boise).

    It's about 550 miles from my place to LT Racing. I drive a '02 Dodge Ram w/4.10 gears running Superchip 91oct program, and could have driven there for that (at todays fuel price) and still had $$ left to take my uncle in Seattle out for a cheap dinner........but guess the few days stay over waiting for work to be done and drive back might have been a bit spendy.

    Sign up for the ups account (anyone can, it is EZ), throw them in a gun case, print the label off your computer and ship it ground for about $25. The mailbox stores rape you.

    - hope no one here runs a UPS store :D

    I definitely went brain dead and screwed up when I sent mine......could have (should have) sent thru our office account.
