MEET THE EXPERTS

Ted Porter 
Suspension training certificates from five major shock manufacturers and a 40+ year industry expert.

Decades ago when Ted was just a boy, his dad who was a respected auto mechanic pointed out the poor suspension behavior of a car with a blown shock that was driving next to them. That began Ted's fascination with suspension. Ted went on to become a certified BMW motorcycle technician, a BMW dealership service manager, then a motorcycle business owner with a focus on suspension. It wasn't long before the business became a nationally known importer and distributor of suspension products for all brands, plus distribution of other unique items such as the Hexcode products and SBVTools. Ted still gets his hands dirty doing most of the ESA conversions, and enjoys doing classic BMW component repair when time allows.

Jeff Favorite 
25 years Tuning & Designing Suspension Systems at Fox Racing Shocks before joining the team at BeemerShop in 2014. 

Jeff performed many duties over the 25 years he worked at Fox Racing, including designing and testing suspension, providing race support in many forms, and he even ran the snowmobile aftermarket division for a time. Jeff decided to join the team at Beemershop and was happy to get back to his first love, motorcycle suspension. If you send your shocks in for a rebuild, you'll have the good fortune to be able to talk with Jeff when he contacts you with his assessment of your suspension prior to doing the service. Jeff also does most of the fork work and he's a natural running our Roehrig shock dyno and doing custom valving.
