Just found a link on the net for yet ANOTHER German website that I think does fork springs but I can't figure out if they are a std replacement or an uprate - can any German speaking bikers help or has anyone heard of any uprates???

Hi Iconic Just had a look at the site.
The springs appear to be progresive springs I hope im not trying to teach my granny to suck eggs here but the turns in progresive spings become closer together towards one end of the spring.
For example the springs act normaly but under load ie braking and cornering the stiffer part of the spring comes into play so the ride becomes harder and the forks would'nt bottom out so easly.
But if you email them im sure they would reply in English.

Cheers - that's EXACTLY what I'd like to happen...

Good to a real 900ss for a change
