I'm looking at some 2000 model SV650 front springs for the FZS600, seller tells me they are 343mm long, 32 OD, 25 ID racetech tells me they are 0.706kg weight. And the pics tell me they are straight rate springs or close to. Also they are $30 AUD.

Spring length of the FZS600 is apparently 335mm (from Savvy's thread). I'm adding adjustable preload caps to my early FZS600 forks (ebay specials) and cartridge emulators so although i don't have a measurement the spring should probably end up being roughly 25mm shorter than the 335mm standard.
So if i start with a 343mm long 0.706kg/mm spring, and then cut it down to 310mm i imagine i'll have quite some spring rate increase....now for me to work it out...
