Message: [QUOTE="dirt bike dave, post: 89159, member: 18302"] Have shortened fork springs on my '84 and '90 KDX and seen it done by friends on several other bikes. Just pay attention to the warning about coil bind - measure the space between the coils and multiply by the # of remaining spaces and make sure the distance is still greater than your fork travel. Have never known of anyone to cut a shock spring themselves, but a buddy with a DR350 did braze little metal wedges between some coils to keep those coils from compressing. [/QUOTE]
