Hi All
I see several options on eBay for replacement fork springs: hyperpros (most expensive), wilbers, ohlins (middling cost) and wirth, a german firm I'd not heard of, making a credible looking progressive spring (cheapest)
I guess ohlins is the most attractive brand of the bunch, but their springs will be linear, so perhaps too firm and sporty for the Fazer? I use it mostly for spirited touring and the road surface can be pretty rugged hereabouts
I'd be grateful for your wisdom and experience on linear v progressive fork springs, and on the best aftermarket spring option
Sorry if this question has been answered already elsewhere. I did take a look round before posting, but coudn't find what I needed
Thanks
