About MTS Suspension

MTS Suspension is a suspension set up business owned and run by Matt Taylor.

Matt set up trading as MTS in 2016, having retired from a 30 year career. He trained as a mechanical engineer in the Royal Navy and was buying, selling and working on motorcycles from an early age.

Matt is an experienced rider, who now prefers the race track to the road. Not that it prevents him from setting up road bikes, far from it.

He has gained experience in racing and most recently in 2021 had a 3rd in the No Limits Racing Cup 1000 championship, riding the MTS Suspension GSXR 1000 on Ktech suspension. Installed and set up by Matt of course.

He is an experienced riding Instructor with No Limits track days and provides suspension set up at many UK track days.

He has undertaken courses in suspension set up, and service and is a fully insured motorcycle technician.

Matt provides a bespoke personal service to all his customers, giving detailed telephone advice to customers, on their existing set ups and upgrade options. Ride in ride out service is available. Servicing of all standard suspension and many other brands is available however Matt has affiliated himself as a Ktech service provider and installer due to the quality of the parts and aftersales being second to none in his opinion.

Matt has also provided support in the BSB paddock, working with Lucca Alan Racing in JSS and most recently Team Evergreen.

Matt says ‘all riders are different and ride differently to each other, no matter what their level of riding ability is, setting up a motorcycle isn’t just about knowledge of the suspension units themselves and how they affect the motorcycle, it is also understanding how the rider rides the motorcycle, having a knowledge of tires, geometry and wheel base setting, as well as the implications that gearing can have on the motorcycles handling. My knowledge in these areas is what allows me to make your motorcycle work for you’.

‘Making it work for you’ is the foundation of what MTS Suspension set up is about.

It’s the difference between a good day and a bad day.
