..... FZ1 springs

[Brook]

...... Can someone tell me, if the FZ1 02 and 03 forks use the same springs ??
... I received my Traxxion Dynamics springs [1.0]today, [after 5:00 ] and they are shorter than what is in the forks now. and I think the forks are 03's.

                                      thanks, Jeff

I would think '01 through '05 use the same springs.  Nothing significant changed on the Gen 1 that I know of.

When I replaced my stock FZ1 springs with traxxon's omni springs I had to use a longer spacer to get my preload set right. IIRC the omni springs I got came with some tubing that I cut down to make the spacers.. Hope this helps..

..... Yamifj1200,.... Yes it did, the springs came with two tubes and a buffer of some sort...I have not taken them out of the wrapper yet, I want to make sure they are the right springs,...... Thanks

   But, I may need to send them back anyway, I order the 1.05 and he sent the 1.0

I suppose it depends on what you weigh. I was at 235# when I ordered the 1.0 kg Omni springs and now Im 192# and the front end still rides fine for me. You might be fine with the 1.0's

If ordering springs made you lose 42lbs, i'm going to buy a set myself!

I was referring to the way the forks worked at either weight. Determination, hard work and not eating as much is why I was able to loose the weight. I'm still recovering from my stroke and I spose sometimes I may type things that others may not understand.
