shittygsxr Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 go on race techs website and it tells you the different spring rates of stock springs. More than likely you can find the correct spring on ebay for nothin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than likely you can find the correct spring on ebay for nothinHe's got a Hyperco spring... Won't work for reference sake...As for what i currently have - I have a 7" 425 spring. Not gonna work... I have moved to Ohlins and don't have any extras other than that one for some reason...Check on www.wera.com they have them everywhere as that is a Penske spring and very common brand.Best bet though is to check with Reuben as he has a PILE of springs at his shop and would sell you one cheap.317-850-3884 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moto-Brian Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 155-160 lbsThis is the chart im going by for my 05 zx6r:http://www.penskeshocks.com/Motorcycle-Spring_Chart.phpThen if you have a 500, you really have the right spring. Somewhat stiffer than I would suggest (I would suggest the 475).I'd call Reuben and see what he has at the shop. The cost is gonna be cheap. I'd buy a 475 and have the 500 as a tune changing option. You'd use a 500 at some tracks vs the 475...Talk with Reuben and see what he thinks. He has a VAST knowledge for the Kawasaki ZX6R...

Moto-Brian Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 Oh, wait... You want a 500 as you have a 525 now. I gotcha. Yeah, get a 500 or a 475 (More highly recommended for your weight if 150-160) really. You are at the low end of a 500 and in the meat for a 475...

You are at the low end of a 500 and in the meat for a 475...Yea my weights right there on the edge, but after factoring in gear and some winter weight im probably best with a 500. Ill PM thermosman on WERA and see what he says. He got a quote from UPS for $20 shipping. I appreciate the offer Brian...Ill let you know if he's ok with it.

Same weight though, I think. Maybe was a 450... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
