Is that a Maxton spring on the 996? Took mine in to hobbsport a couple of days ago (fork seals) and he was trying to sell me a hyperpro suspension kit that had a purple spring very much the same shade as the maxton ones.

Nice bike by the way!

the purple is a HyperPro trademark, I don't think anyone else makes purple ones ....

just got hold of a titanium spring to fit the 999, it only weighs 460gms for a 160 length spring, very, very, tasty.

You wanna get both mate! But how about a KTM 660 SMC

How big does that look next to the 996R!

Looks nice Shaun.

I think it's nice when a Ducati Rock (reads Ducati all the way through) decides to go A.W.O.L.

Good luck matey

You've outed yourself. Let's just see what happens :

No Maxton ones are definitley purple! Only been there once about 9 year ago but I remember boxes full of purple springs everywhere one of which ended up fitted to my new 96 blade.
