Hi Oldskool,
Pity about the speedo drive, but the updated version you'll get is much more durable.
Regarding standard springs....
Although I'd really hoped that people would get decent improvements from the emulators & oil only, there's a growing amount of evidence that replacement springs are also needed to get the very best out of this type of conversion.
There are springs from other bikes that will fit FZS600 forks, and as I encouraged everyone to get the emus I feel somewhat compelled to point out to everyone who bought the emulators alternative cheap-ish springs that should improve their front-end even more.
So if you also need aftermarket springs I'll try & track down a set for you?
Also, regarding fine-tuning, by all means continue to adjust your setup - it's rare to get things bang on 1st go
@ Robbus - very strange to lose travel, but it's got to be in there somewhere!
Also, my older bike has the longer damper rods as shown in guide pics, and the springs and preload spacers are also different lengths from the 2000 onwards models, but even so, they still have 120mm travel....no idea what's going on but we'll get you sorted eventually
