.38kg FRP Fork Springs or Honda .40 for KDX 220?

[K Dixon]

Thanks for the response to my other spring questions. I've narrowed it down to either FRP 38s or Honda .40s. I weigh from 175 to 180lbs. Ride mostly tight woods, some roots but mostly hard packed trails, second to third gear type stuff I ride the bike more like a 125, prefering to screem it a little more than lug it. I have some racing experience, but am just getting back into it after a 22 year absence. Any advice would be appreciated.

I ordered the .39's and he sent me the .40's by accident, but I wanted .40's anyways, but FRP "dosn't" sell them. Well it's not on his website anyways. They work great, as long as you set your rear sag to 100mm or so. When I installed the springs, I didnt really notice a difference, but when I set my rear sag to 100mm, (was 75mm) The difference was really felt! Well worth the money IMO.
