For anyone who hasn't fitted their emulators yet... and there are a few of you :lol
If you have early 1998/99 forks, I have a spare pair damper rods already drilled out. If you send me your originals I will forward these drilled items to save you some grief. In 2000 onwards forks the damper rods are shorter, so wouldn't be a straight swap.
Regarding spring upgrades, I have a pair of 1994-97 VFR750 springs that I originally used to good effect with my emus. I reduced their length making them a good bit firmer; they're probably suitable for anyone over 13 stone now & whoever wants them can have them for postage costs.
You'd also need longer spacers as they are now 298mm long, but just PM Robbus as I suspect he might have some metal tubing to spare
If anyone wants other suitable fork springs that would go very well with their emulator setup there are a couple currently on ebay:
1) Hyperpro CBR600f 1993-98 springs - ebay item # 151170777743
2) K-Tech Honda Hornet 600 springs - 0.85kg/mm - ebay item 190974968483
Both bikes are within about 12 kilos of the FZS600 so their springs should be ideal. Obviously (again) you may well need different length metal spacers to compensate for shorter springs.
