Progressive fork springs? Gladius.
Hi UK Riders
Has anyone upgraded to progressive springs, front and rear on their Suzuki Gladius? Secondly, which manufacturer do you recommend? What were the improvements to the overall ride, if any? Or..... Do you recommend just putting better fork oil into the suspension shafts? Tks...Ride Safe Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using Tapatalk HD |

Re: Progressive springs
Progressive springs can work out quite nicely on the road (the standard springs are slightly progressive, as are many other bikes).
It's worth mentioning what you weigh, as if you're quite a bit over the light end of the scale, single rate springs can be a better bet to use the right amount of travel for the conditions. Jambo
