[QUOTE="Simon Fuller, post: 95453, member: 23284"] I have a 98 220. The std springs are .35 and I wanted to go to .40. Being mindful of coil bind I measured the gap between the coils and multiplied by the no. of gaps which makes 320mm. The fork travel is 290mm. To get to .40 I calculated that I would need to remove 4 coils (31 x .35)/.40=27. Unfortunately this doesn't leave enough free space for the amount of travel. It would appear that Kawa have done their maths and put in springs just long enough to cope with the amount of travel. I reckon you could only safely remove 2 coils, giving springs of .37kg. Looks like I'll have to pry open my wallet after all! [/QUOTE]
