zrx1200 fork springs ?

Post by lastzed »

just modding front forks with heavier springs, Wilbers 0.90. Anyone know the standard lenght of the stock springs?. The new springs I recieved are approx 380mm in lenght, That seems to be on the long side of things, anyway someone out there with a 2008 zrx1200 may have already done the upgrade thing and might be good enough to measure the stockers for me. thanks in advance

Service manual says stock springs are 286.8mm with an adjustable range to 281mm. Dunno what that means. Maybe they can sag to that length over time? :shock:
2 X ZRX1200R 4 X ER6N, GT550, 1988 ZX-10, 4 X GPZ250R, 4 X GPZ900R and GPZ750R :) Yeah I like Kawasakis.
