I am about to become the proud owner of the minibike that I never got in my childhood. It is the japanese knock off of the z50. It has already been tricked out a bit to make it an adult pit bike with bars and a 70cc head.
My question is about suspension. After an exhaustive search on the net I can not find springs for this bike to make it a better ride for an adult. Heaps of sites are dedicated to xr50 hop ups, but not to z50. A couple of sites vaguely suggest that xr50 fork springs will also go in a z50 but I need advice.
What is the possibility that I can find heavier springs at some sort of industrial supply place?
Any sources for z50 (not xr50) aftermarket parts?
