About me

I am the Automotive power generation technical instructor based at UWE Frenchay. I have many years' experience in the motorcycle industry, fixing, repairing, diagnosing, rebuilding engines, tuning engines, mapping/dyno running and servicing. With that I have several years' experience in racing motorcycles with both building and maintaining including race support. I have also raced motorcycles myself.

I have a few years' experience in engine testing, in this time I worked with a company which specialised in small rotary engines for unmanned aircraft. I was responsible for running factory acceptance test, development tests and engine mapping. 

I also run my own company where I specialise in maintenance, repair and tuning of motorcycle suspension and gyometery for track and road motorcycles.
