Seems like they are still making them to me.

FRSP S293880
RT FRK SPR 29.0x377mm .80kg

From my FAQ on front sprngs:

"RaceTech spring rate calculator: First go here. Select Suzuki, then GS500, then your year model. If you have an '04+, the '01-'03 one works as well. Click Continue. Click the large red text that says Custom Fork Spring Calculation and Available Rates."

At the very bottom, first thing under "Links".
