Hagon Progressive Fork Springs

Are the Hagon progressive fork springs as good as the Ohlin fork springs? And do I have to look for anything in particular when ordering? I might well have asked before, sorry, brain like a sieve

Oh we're doing this thread again

Lots of companies do fork springs, as long as it's roughly right for your weight you'll be fine, some people prefer linier springs, some prefer progressives, both people claim they're happy with them

a 'spring' is a 'spring'.

Not like the idea of a Gixer front end Mike? If not, look on www.lm-spares.co.uk i have 10% discount if you wanna use that?

I got Ohlins ones in the black one. it came with them. Can't say I've really noticed if they're special or owt.They do the job. I got Hagon progressives to stick in the yellow one, no idea wot the difference is. I'm a lightweight girlie so what bearing this would have on the matter I've no idea either.

On that site Hagon fork springs £78 + vat!! (inc oil)

I got mine last year from Hagons for approx £65 inc oil,delivery, and vat.

Just looked on Hagon's site but springs for sv 650 no longer listed.. mmmm ??

Normal price of their fork springs seems to be £55 a pair .. curious.. Have they just stoppped making them for sv's? Did LM's buy the job lot?

Give Hagons a bell?

Linear or Progressive?

Just pic the ones you like the colour of (quote courtesy of Sid Squid)

I did, and while the Hyperpro Progressive fork springs were exactly the same colour as the Suzuki ones that came out I quite like them.

I did it as a kit with the rear, which is purple

Road progressive if you take life slower...linear if your heavy and tend to take life a tad faster. Track - linear.

What about someone like me then, weigh 11 stone dripping wet in leathers but like to ride a bit quick? Progressive in one side and a linear in the other?
