[QUOTE="G. Gearloose, post: 99312, member: 19284"] MAtt, After you get that summer job...:D What canyn sez and.. Your bike likely has .30 springs. You can call Fredette, he has 'take off' .35 springs for $50, preload and oil recomendations depending upon your #. 0.35 could by too soft for you too, but he will know and set you up to your riding style. For instance my '91 forks sagged 1.5" static then another 1.5" when I got on it (180# ride-ready) so you must be seeing even more droop. Both these numbers are 1" now and it behaves much more precisely all-around. Perhaps you can add .5" preload to fix the static sag, add oil to effectivly raise the rate some, but as canyn said,its not a comprehensive solution and had tradeoffs, but could get you by until you have the cash. I used the synthetic ATF with these spings, and the combo is markedly better and recomended, but I only have two data points nor am I a racer. [/QUOTE]
