Or Phone Richard at Harris Performance, about £90 for overhaul of seals oil etc and £60 odd quid for a spring last time I enquired, I get my springs else where fopr under £30 normally.

Maxton and get them to do the forks at the same time!

Mmmmmm,

Im just about to get an Ohlins shock serviced as well. What is the weight range for a K tech spring with a number of 57-160-60?

I am about 14 and a half to 15 stone when fully kitted up in my bike gear.

Cheers,

DC.

Not sure but I think that means its a 160mm long spring rated at 6.0kg/mm which is very light if fitted to a 748/9**
Probably about right for a 10 stone rider

Oh bugger,

Looks like I will be changing the spring then.

And yes it is for a 748 but I have a single seat unit so no passengers.

From what I recall the single seat 748/9** bikes came with either a 6.4kg/mm or a 6.5kg/mm spring with the Biposto getting a 7.5kg/mm
Have you ever checked the loaded and unloaded sag to see how it compares to recommended settings.
