what springs should i use in my 03 goldwing with new roadsmith kit. i got zook new 6 degree tree and wanting to know what springs to put in, i weight 280 and two up most of the time and that make it about 450 can anyone help out on this. like a nice ride thanks
Me the same. On a Valkyriei was talking about putting new fork springs in. i did not know to put progressive in or go with new oem springs. i do know my old spring are wore out, i get my kit this next week and i got the bike apart now and ready, i orderd a tree from Zook and got it and as soon as i get the kit on bike i want to change tree and put new springs in the front fork,
Will it alsoi think i well put OEM springs in and rebuilted forks
I would put a fresh set of OEM springs in. The progressive springs are too rigid. Hitting pot holes (even small ones) and bumps really beats my shoulders up! I've discovered the internal fork parts ware out much quicker on the raked trike then OEM triple trees.
I agree 100% Jerry, and tell everyone who asks me to keep the stock fork springs, that the progressive springs are too rigid. Some choose to ignore my advice and thats their choice, but I have installed then later removed several sets of progressive springs over the years due to the owner being unhappy with the harsh ride.
