Title: CB750K2 Fork Springs
Post by: philward on July 09, 2015, 10:20:28 PM

Hi everyone
Got some 60th birthday present 'Universal Vouchers' (cash!) left that's burning a hole in my pocket and only thing I don't like about the 750 is the sloppy front end due to old worn springs. Any recommendations on spring replacements.
Thanks
Phil

Progressive all the way they make a massive improvement to the handling.

Are you using those crappy springs I sent with the fork bottoms?

If you scroll right to the end of this Dropbox link (its a massive document) you will find several restoration  articles some from TANSA the VJMC magazine and I am sure there's one in there on fork tips for the CB750.

Hi Phil, please let me know how you get on with them and which ones you ordered, there seem to be a few options on ebay.
