springs
« on: 01 May 2013, 10:02:20 pm »
Non fazer but allways worth a shot with the knowledge pool we have here.

I have a H Reg GSX 600 f katana.
Was in a garden un covered for 3 years, I brought it and played with it a bit over winter. Passed an mot today but still has a few issues. Main 1 is poor running missfire and poor tickover.

But once I sort that I want to take a look at very cheaply getting the suspension working. Front springs are shot and rear ain't far off.
If I go hyper pro I'm looking at 200 for front and rear kits.
Gota be cheaper springs around. Anyone recomend a place for them? Linier I would prefer and stronger than std.
Not had much luck on owner clubs for it as all I have been to so far are inactive.
Shame as I'm sure there is a shock that's a straight swap if you know what to look for. Like maybe the Gsx 750 f rear or some such.


Shoe string budget as its a real ratty bike.
