progressive springs...

[alexXx]

okay so i decided the first thing i wanna do to my bike is get those soft forks fixed...how much would progressive springs be?  where would i get them?  and could i (keep in mind i'm not the most mechanically sound person with a motorcycle) install it myself?  

and if progressive springs would be too pricey for me, how well does the fork spacer mod talked about in the modifications link on this site work compared to the springs?  and looking at the mod, i think (key word THINK) i would be able to manage it...just how long of a spacer would i be cutting?

thanks all

I paid $15.00 and the whole process of installation took 35 min.  And I changed out the fork oil when I did it.  You could shave off 25 of those min if you don't change the fork oil.

$15 for progressive springs? I think you should share where you bought them at with the group-dont hold out!

usually the springs are about $60. Check my site for an easy way to do it. Takes 20-30 minutes my way.
