Does your bike have the Pre-Load adjusters on the top of the fork legs. I don't think that the 1999 FZS600 did have then, but by asking that question it will let you know if the forks have been replaced/upgraded to the later set with the factory Pre-Load adjusters. If it has not got them (which I suspect it will not) then the longer damper rods in the bottom of you forks would mean the slightly shorter springs will be fitted. I will just pop up the shed and measure the Yamaha original progressives that I replaced with the Ohlins Linears.
Bloody Heck it's cold outside, right the original progressives out of the FZS600 2002-2003 Foxeye are between 318mm and 319mm long, that is coupled with the damper rod length of 190mm.
