1150GS springs on 1150ADV shocks

[Flipfly]

Can this be done effectively without issues.

Mate has an 1150adv and it's a bit too tall. I have a set of standard GS springs to donate, but not sure if they will be too short and drop out at full extention.

Cheers for any help

When I bought my Wilbers shocks the rod was shortened to match the length but I have read of some people doing what you've asked....

Change the centre and side stands for std 1150 or he won't get it on the centre stand and the bike doesn't lean over enough for the side stand!!!

I'll check what I have in stock which may be able to help your mate. My bike (GSA) came with HyperPro's lowering spring kit which could be fitted to your mates shocks. I'll check the numbers on the springs and let you know tomorrow.

Sorted now (distracted by MotoGP).

The HyperPro springs have the following numbers:

Rear: 1317 (currently mounted on a Showa B0352 shock BMW# 7-680-720)

Front: 1316 (currently mounted on a Showa shock B0353 BMW# 7-660-284)

I can remove the springs if required.

These springs lowered the bike by about 20mm IIRC. At least I think that's what they are supposed do but you can check this somewhere.

If Mate is interested just let me know.
