GT500 springs

Post by rbond »

Anybody know of good aftermarket fork springs for GT500's? Mine are sacked a little, I would rather not do the valve spring spacer trick, worked OK on my TS100 I used to have. But was a bugger to get the top tube bolts to start threading properly. Thanks in advance.

This is a little late, but I used air caps on my GT500 forks when I raced. They actually worked quite well. Stopped the bottoming out, and gave some extra 'spring'.
