Race tech spring rate calculator accurate?

[rm_racer]

Hey guys,
How close is the race tech spring rate calculator in terms of what it says the stock bike comes with. I have a 1994 RM125 with stock springs in the front. It says the stock fork springs are .360kg/mm. For my weight (125lbs) it says the spring rate for me would be .375kg/mm. The lowest I can get for my bike from EIBACH is .43kg/mm. Is it just me or is my fork spings really soft stock? Or am I interperating the chart wrong? They seem harder then that when I ride...
