I keep threatening to replace my front springs with something stiffer becaus, I know for a fact the stockers are too soft.
I have never been a big fan of the 'dual rate' springs which seems to be all anyone sells. The Progressive Suspension version is available in either 25/35 or 35/50 inch pound versions. I'm 220 lbs, the bike is probably 80 pounds lighter than stock, I consider myself to be an advanced intermediate rider. Anybody out there close to my size used either and if so what's your experience?
I'm also considering ordering straight rate springs by length (484mm) and diameter (24mm), thinking maybe 40 inch pounds. Anyone tried this?
