I bought front & back springs from them and the Front was right around $119 if I recall correctly.

The difference is fantastic. It's far more capable on and offroad. Very little nose-diving under front braking at speed (I tested it a few times on the local MSF Rider Safety Course)

Thank you, Too bad we have to spend money to fix something the kawi must have calculated on the light side. 150# is what I've read, thats a 130# rider, plus gear.

Yeah once it's handling correctly it's a lot more fun to ride

I'll be completing my jet kit installation today just in time for the temperature drop to the low 30s

I went with the Moto Pro .44's as well. Can't say enough about them or john at the shop. He helped me with spring choice and walked me through the install.He also said the ultra max valve kit would be a good idea due to the lack of adjustable comp. dampening. Part # umax2006k 159.95

Crap! It sounds like I need to do this after 3 years. But I have learned to ride great the way it is. Does that mean I would have to learn all over again?

That would be lack of adjustable rebound dampening, but you know that I know that I know that you know that you really meant to write that

I've got the Ultramax valves and Moto-pro springs in mine. Together they make a big difference, but I'm not sure how much effect each one has since they were installed together.
