I was looking at Racetech and their spring rate calculator for the 06 FJR, for my weight as one up rider (240lbs) I would need to replace the front fork springs to a 1.2kg rate spring. The rears just by swinging the lever to hard will be close.
I was wondering why this bike felt too soft. Now if I put my wife on the back it would put us at 390lbs.
I would need a 1.5kg fork springs, and 1.3kg shock spring.
Haven't even checked for gear weight added.
Any sources for the increased springs.
I don't need the service, just the springs.
I use Eibachs on my dirt bikes but no such luck for street.
