hyperpro replacement springs

[Pthagonal]

anybody know anything about these replacement springs for the gs?

would like to upgrade my suspension but overa grand for a set of ohlins is too much at the moment..

these springs are meant to be around 120 euros..

anybody know if they are worth getting?

Mmmm....sounds interesting Pthag. Cant see prices or bikes catered for though?
If you get any more info I would interested to hear.
Thanks

Unless you're going to replace the springs on a practically new set of shocks, I wouldn't have thought it was worth it. Good springs on shocks with the damping shot would be no improvement....

They had a 1150 demonstrator fitted with hyperpro's. Of the people I know that had a go most couldn't feel any difference.
Thats perhaps something to do with it being a new bike anyway.

Hi pthagonal,

I have just (last week) ordered a front and rear Ohlins from Motorworks @680.00 inc. postage - considerably less than a 'grand'. They have (or had!) a 10% sale on. Haven't got them yet though, must still be in the post

Can't wait!

yep thats sterling.. in euro its over a grand ... and i cant justify that much money right now.. maybe in a few months..

but the springs are 158 euros plus postage.. not bad for a quick boost..

anyways we will see..

if i get them i will give a full report on how they feel..

ok

By my caluclations at todays exchange rate it is to be precise:

680.00 GBP United Kingdom Pounds = 1,000.51 Euro. Looks like you're just 51euro cents short!!!

as they say you know you want them.ohlins that is.

and they will match your bike colour better than the hyperpro

I am going to replace my standard springs with Hyperpro's progressive rate ones within the next month, bike's only done 1500 miles so the damping should be ok. Have been quoted £131.81 for the pair. There's some talk on the Advrider website regarding this subject.
