Ok i can see what you are saying.
The engineer is the expert .
Is it the same engineer that gave us the surging or were some of the bikes
just not set up properly when they left the factory .
If the engineer is so good at his job why do bikes have recalls .
Some people like to do it by the book and that's fine , others like to do it
differently based on what they believe to be an improvement to the way it is
normally done , and if the result is as good as or better than the book ,
then why not .
The engineer tells us what the correct pressures are to run our tyres at ,
so why don't we do as were told .
The thing i like about the list is that , we all say it as we see it , we
maybe right , we maybe wrong .
The important thing is we decide for ourselves , what we do next .
But we DO need to question new idea's / method's and maybe even put them to
the test .
