Just want to give a big shout out to Graeme Brough from LA. We have been struggling here in South Africa to get our YZF450 dialed in. After consulting with Graeme via Skype he mailed us Spec for our suspension.

The bike is now amazing and my rider reckons it feels smooth like a Limosine through the rough stuff.

Thanks Graeme, we now looking forward to going racing.

He has been doing my stuff for about 4 years. He likes to get feed back and updates on how your stuff is working and how to make it better. He will call me just to check in, who do you know that does this? You can also call him any time with questions and he takes the time to help over the phone.

Graeme is a great guy and does great job!

Graeme has been doing my father in laws suspension for awhile now and the guy is unreal. Good prices, quick turnaround, great with status updates, and his suspension work is top shelf.

The guy knows what hes doing and he loves doing it. Hard to find a guy like that in this day and age

I worked under Graeme at FMF many years back and he was awesome when it came to explaining suspension. He has a world of patience and quickly understands a riders needs.

Graeme can be contacted here. Graemebrough@hotmail.com

I will contact him for his phone number but he really prefers Vox or Skype.

Graeme is doing the suspension duties full time for the Leading Edge Kawasaki Team at the Canadian Nationals working with Alessi and Friese this summer. I think he is going to be pretty busy with those guys. He worked for the same team last summer and he said they would fly him up on the weekends. I'm sure he will still do other customer suspension but it may take a little longer to get it done. Normally he takes a week but I took my RMZ suspension into him about two months ago and he told me then he was real busy. It took about two and half weeks for me.

Like mentioned above, he has as much experience as anybody. He knows what he is doing and loves to share his knowledge with you. Great guy and reasonable on prices.
