![]() So if you build it or if someone else builds it, they could have more dampening or less dampening, and they really don’t know. So, without that Dyno, he wouldn’t know what the difference is that he’s got there. What I would like to point out is that it’s just come off the Dyno now for the third time. Greg: So, Dave, I have had a couple people say before, “Oh, it’s a little bit more expensive to have it done by Nick” or “It takes longer”, or something like that. The Dyno just runs through about 13 different test speeds, which is part of our standard testing procedure. ![]() I’ll just do some quick live tests to make sure that the shock has the gas pressure in it that it should have, and it should be somewhere near our dampening targets before we actually do the test. Nick: So, we’re just doing the first of a series of tests. I can’t thank Greg enough for the opportunity. ![]() Tim: I’m just beyond excited! I feel like I’ve won the motorcycle lottery. Greg: It was quite surreal to be sitting at the airport this morning, going wow-I’m waiting for a guy I’ve never met who I contacted on a Facebook page and went, “Hey, if you get yourself to Australia, I’ll provide everything else you need, and a bike with Teknik Suspension, and a whole heap of Adventure Moto Gear and a bike supplied by Yamaha Australia,” and wow-I’ve never met this guy, and I’m hoping he’s not an axe murderer!ĭave: Greg Yager, the man that drank too much beer while Facebook stalking and made it all happen, has taken Tim straight to Teknik MotorSports to get Tim’s suspension sorted on his brand new Yamaha that he’ll be riding in this weekend’s Yamaha 250 Rally. I caught up with Tim fresh from his flight from the United States. After seeing Tim getting loose, I’m pretty sure there’ll be a few engineers back in Japan scratching their heads as to what he can do with what they designed as a day tripper for the Japanese market. It’s fair to say that Tim’s riding style is unbelievably loose, but equally unbelievable is how Tim came to be here: A unique combination of Facebook, beer and a mutual love of the Yamaha WR250R. Narrator: Motorcycle Adventure Dirt Bike TV is proudly supported by Adventure Spec back in England, Rally Raid Products, Giant Loop in the United States and Adventure Moto in Australia.ĭave: I’d like you to meet Tim, currently the luckiest American in Australia. ![]()
