Was nosing around the Twin Shack site and found these.

Hyperpro progressive front springs and rear adjustable shock.

Anyone fitted either?

Think I'll defo be doing front springs soon. Over winter, not sure about the rear, that doesn't really need doing. It's a biggish job for me anyway.
However, I suppose you could say you might as well do both at once?

Feedback appreciated.

Cheers

I can see a linear vs. progressive thread starting here.
I think the general consensus is that linear is the way to go, but either is an improvement over stock. Prices are about the same.

Quite a few on here folk have fitted Hyperpro. Maybe better to ask in SV talk for personal opinions.

There is a good argument for getting both ends done at the same time tho. Doing one often reveals the weakness in the other.

Cheers Haggis.

I'll go post in SV talk and get some more opinion.

I noticed I am getting a few knocks when going over not particularly big bumps.

Bikes an 03 and has never had oil or springs looked at.

Only thing I can see in manual is fork oil change after three years ( i think)

At work just now, can't verify that.

Cheers

Northy'll know. He'll be along soon hopefully.

Haven't a clue. HTH

Springs are springs, at the end of the day, if the rates are right. Don't know much about those shocks but RobW#70 probably will.

To be honest if the budget covers those two, personally, I'd leave the shock in or fit a GSXR one, and spend the money on the front end- emulators as well, or maybe the Matris kit. Or, save the money. Aftermarket shocks are ace but for most folks it's overkill, and if you'll be happy with just springs and oil in the front then you'd probably also be happy with a cheaper shock swap I reckon...

Do as I say, not as I do!
