Best place to buy new fork springs?
 

Hi folks,
Sorry to beat an old horse more, but can anybody recommend a place online to order some new fork springs?
Thanks,
Rich

Demon Tweeks for Ohlins springs.

Good evening.
I'd recommend Hagon springs, they're on 020 8502 6222. Around £63 including oil. Top Notch.

Cheers

I'd recommend Hagon too and Spannerman if your in the Notts/Derbyshire area (its worth a trip even if your not)

Morning all.
Thanks for the plug UKI, there aint no such thing as bad publicity! (just don't mention my strange visitors again):D

Cheers.

Would upgrading springs / oil on a K6 get rid of that horrible klunking noise when you hit a pothole / dodgy manhole cover?

I am another new rider so have no real experience on what good suspension is if the SV is that bad should I invest anyway and be pleasently surprised?

BTW how long would it take to get to Nottingham from the M25 if I cannot find a local mororcycle mechanic (not keen on dealers for this type of thing)

Cheers

Good morning.
Is the clonking excessive? If so, it could be loose headraces. Though it's more likely to be the forks topping out (reaching full extension).
Changing the springs tends to quieten the front end down a touch in this respect.
I'm about 2 hours or less depending on traffic, from the M1/M25 junction about 10 minutes from junction 27 on the M1, in a place called Kirkby-in-Ashfield.

Cheers.

Another recommendation for Hagon , have bought 2 sets of springs from them in the past , really helpfull and fast delivery ( and cheap) .

Cheers Steve

Not excesive, I try to miss the obvious ones but is annoying, the bike has only done just over 1k so I hope that nothing has come loose already!

If I have the front forks upgraded is it worth looking at sticking a rear GSXR on at the same time.

I am topping 15st btw, from what I have read on the forum SV's are designed more for non-pie eaters!

Maxton Suspension.

Forks are now sublime!
