I have just put a set of works springs in my front forks,i got talked out of putting Progressive springs in.
First of all there is actually 2 springs that go in one long goes in first then a washer then the short spring , a crossover tube goes inside the last spring these come in 3 different lengths and determine the point when the springs go from soft to firm; the short one is soft ,long one firm, i chose the middle one,on top of that is another washer add oil close her up and off you go.
Trouble was that there was a gap between the top of the spring and the top of the fork tube, so there was no pre-load. A pre-load tube comes in the box but it states that i won't be needing it. I tried fitting the ones that were supplied but they were too long and i couldn't compress the forks enough to get the forkcaps back on so i cut some smaller ones and after 2 hrs i managed to get the caps back on BUT it just doesn't feel right yet, i'll take it for a longer test ride tomorrow and see if i like it any better.
Anyone else tried these springs and if so what do you think of them??
Went for a ride two up on the twisties today, no wallowing in the bends and no bottoming out, so far so good.
