Well I for certain am interested in improvements, but I think what is happening regarding Rob's comments is exactly what I would expect. It is this "Gray Area" regarding suspension where most get lost, as the general public or motorcyclist in our case, have no real idea what is going on. To change a set of springs or a shock absorber seems a reasonable thing, and most can and would carry out this change for an improvement, but beyond that.......You are entering an area that most would not go to. The change thus far regarding the Modified stem works very well, as it allows the font end to perform more like telescopic forks. It appears from the comments of others on this forum, that this is what was needed. I understood that most all owners of Brampton equipped bikes were very happy with their bikes, with no abnormal behavior or head shakes, only that they wish a decent shock absorber could be fitted. Also that we don't really want to change the look of the bikes too much, after all it is a Vincent and not some hybrid that all these crazy owners have concocted. Otherwise all our bikes start looking like something that they are not. When I built the racer, I was very worried about the bad handling characteristics of Girdraulic forks, I had talked to many people including myself who had suffered tank slappers, some who ended up in hospital with very bad injuries, and I had seen the video footage of John Surtees crash on his twin racer. Because I was very keen to use the bike as a true Vincent I wanted to make sure I reduced the problem as much as I could. I would be interested to know what tests you can perform, and what changes or alterations could be made to improve the fork action. I feel that what has been done is enough, though it is possible that fine tuning will help, but the fork action on all three bikes known to me behave completely different to stock Girdraulics. It is really only the few that will install this kit, or carry out a similar mod, that will experience what I am describing. If I could step back in time and could have shown the two Phil's the benefit of this, and if the change had been implemented, I'm sure the Vincent marque would not have received the "Bad Handling" title that it received.
