Progressive Suspension fork springs

"Transalp" Kelly wrote:

Anyway, the Progressive springs. I've had them about two years, and with 12.5w oil in the forks, they make a BIG difference. Not soft at all, and I wouldn't recommend them for serious off-road usage. On road, though, it turns the 'Alp into a CBR600F3!! I have the utmost in confidence. I will go to a 'softer' oil, like 10w or 7.5w. A little to stiff, for practical purposes. Still can't do a 'stoppie'.

Hope this helps...
