Well, today my progessive springs came, and I bought new jets (1 size up + #4 washer). So now I've got a little work to do. Got the jets for 11 bucks...don't know if that's a lot or not, but it works for me  :)

I also scheduled a 20,000 mile service tune-up thingy, so then she'll be all nice and perfect.

The progressive kit is pretty cool. It came with the two springs, some papers and whatnot, AND a nice heavy duty pvc pipe to make the custom spacer.

Got the parts from the Motorcycle Accessory Warehouse for about 60 bucks (info found on Pablo's site).

Hope you researched how to install the Progressive springs here, and on Pablo's site. Depending on your weight, riding style, and whether or not you carry a passenger frequently, you might want to change the fork oil to a heavier weight. Even if you decide to use the stock weight oil, it won't hurt to drain the old oil and replace it with clean, fresh fork oil...

definetly while youve got it apart put new oil in em, well worth the few bucks you will spend.

They've got fairly fresh 10W oil in them right now. That's teh stock oil right? Also, how much do I need? (of 15w)

377ml's or cc's for each leg.
