Wanted- not VMX- fork springs & shock spring
« on: August 19, 2013, 02:48:45 pm »
Chasing either, or both, forks springs and rear shock spring for late model Jap motocrosser, I think there is much interchangeablity between the brands of modern motocrossers.

They are for my 2011 RMZ450.

Wanting .46kg fork springs and 5.6kg shock spring.

Happy to trade the stock springs (.48kg fork springs & 5.8kg shock spring) if you're looking for that weight?

The RaceTech website will (with a bit of digging) tell you the spring rates and dimensions of virtually every late model dirt bike.
You're likely to have more luck asking for (say) the stock springs from an RMZ250, or whatever happens to have the correct springs.
The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

Give Boltons a call, they might have what you need lying around...
