Fork springs

(1/1)

TERRIBLEONE:
Afternoon all! My CB750 K5 needs new fork springs, does anyone have any suggestions or experience with this? Seems to be the progressive yss or the ikon/koni springs available? Anyone have experience with either? Will they require any extra spacers or straight swap for old springs? Thanks, Ben.

philward:
I put progresive in my 750K2 about 4 years ago - slight improvement. Can't remember which make but no spacers needed

TERRIBLEONE:
Thanks Phil. I’ve just ordered some ikon progressive fork springs and some tec rear shocks. Should do the trick. Cheers.

Arch stanton:
I put progressive springs + 10w oil in my 750f1 forks. Do soft that set up was dreadful. Under heavy braking. The Midgard would lodge between the numbers 2 & 3 down pipes.
So I changed to 15w oil & put in 30mm preload spacers. Everything is grand now.
Sean.
