I had the same problem with my 851. It too had been raced and must have been set up for a 20 stone rider. As I'm only 10 and a half stone wringing wet this was a big problem. It was like there was no suspension at all on the front end.

I took mine to Maxtons who fitted softer springs and re worked the forks. The bike was transformed beyond imagination.

If you can get in touch with Ohlins or a suspension specialist they should be able to give you advice as to which rate of springs to buy.

It'll be worth every penny!
