Allfixed Thanks

Post by smithy5 »

Just wanted to say thanks to one of our sponsors, Glenn at Allfixed Automotive Castle Hill NSW PH: (02) 9634 1455.....
I had a front end shudder under brakes on the 14 that I thought was a warped disc. A Kwaka dealer thought the same :cry:
However, Glenn sussed out the real issue and fixed the problem. Great customer service, great price and obviously a knowledgable mechanic. Cheers....

Real issue was Firey couldn't handle the 14 ;) :lol: well that's the story i'll tell everyone ;)

and also the disc's were glazed/farked even though they still ran true :? ie they had most likely been hot and then got cold real quick, so I can only assume the previous owner use to wash the bike straight after a ride whilst they were still hot.

Hey I had it at redline in the first 3 gears before I even thought about brakes and found out about the shudder. I just assumed barges were difficult to stop :lol:
