Gives me preload on front springs and there is low speed compression via the tapered black thingy at the bottom of the spring.
Standard has no adjustment.

Hey Ron,

Just out of curiosity what did it cost and do they do one for the Z1000?....

Am looking ATM at bringing in a set of '06 ZX6R fork's from the states for @ AU$450....

G'day Dave - $360AU from UK. The ZX6R's are a better install - you will have more adjustments available.

Nice work Ron!! That's a good price for what you get... Do they sells springs on their own. I might chuck this in the memory banks.
