Uprated springs
 
K-Tech linear springs. Heavier rating to firm up front end. Drop in fit on K3 onwards, no need to cut spacers. Cost £72 in postage, used for about a month!

£50 including postage.

Do these fit a curvy if spacers are cut then?

Roughly what rider weight are they for?

Cheers,
Phil

I've no idea if they would fit a curvey I'm afraid. The part number is:35-425-85, so maybe an internet trawl might give you the answer, or a call to K-tech on:01530 810625

I'm 10st and I had the preload adjusters wound right out on my bike to achieve the correct sag. I would say an 11st rider plus would suit them.

HTH.

can i ask why your selling them?

Re: Uprated springs
 
Of course!

I think the spring rate was too high for my body weight (hence using minimum preload on the adjusters) so instead I got a pair of emulators and a pair of Ohlins 0.80 springs to go with them. More supple and suits me better. Alright it's not going to trouble a GSXR in the twisties but then it wouldn't with me on it anyway! :D

These springs would improve the feel over the standard shocks but are probably best suited to someone heavier than me IMO.

HTH.

Found their spec sheet on the K-Tech site.

And nope, they don't fit :-(
