put some 450 shocks on my 07 400ex they are a bit too stiff, was wondering if any one can recommend a brand of springs that are offerered in triple rate or dual wound, that would be a bit lighter? Thanks Bill

what are the weight rating for your springs, how much do you weight, and how fast do you ride. this info would help me select the right springs for me. I race hare scrambles I wt. 170, and run 40+ b I am 58 and usually finish just shy of mid pack out of 120 racers. Bill

i wish i remembered the exact specifications of my springs, but the order form is at home and im at school. i basically told them that i weigh 175 with gear, and i wanted an xc type setup with +2 arms. i also told them that i hit the track here and there, but i think they neglected that completely. i can bottom them out on small hits while not going that fast... for some reason the numbers 600, 600, and 250 come to mind for the springs...
