Just a quick question for you guys, just received my ktech 8.5 springs today and all there was in the box was a set of springs, is this right as the maxton springs I used to have came with a longer spacer. I'm hoping ktech just use the standard spacer but I wanted to check first.

Thanks

Check the length of the new springs versus the present ones, if they are a similar length, (within reason - a few mm either way), then they are intended to be used with the present spacers.
PS. What is the bike in question?

It's a 2006 sv650s I haven't had chance to measure the springs yet

Just got an answer back from ktech and they use the stock spacers. All is well with the world

Chris, please let us know what you think of the Ktech springs once they're fitted.

Will do, but I'm also fitting emulators at the same time so might not be a true reflection on the springs on there own. My initial thoughts are positive as the have reduce the spring length with a bigger spacer.
