Has anyone fitted progressive springs to their America front forks ? If so, where did you source the springs and was there a significant improvement when fitted ? Having just fitted Hagon 2810’s to the rear end thought I might treat the front end. Appreciate any feedback .. thanks
I've done my front end, emulators and springs , did it through a specialist in Melbourne. Any after market springs set for your weight and requirements is a BIG improvement over the standard liquorice soft originals. Go for it ! Search on the interwebs and find a suspension specialist near you !!
So Hagon tell me the progressive spring would be 300 mm long ... does anyone know the length of the standard spring in a 2014 America EFI ? Wondering if this is a straight swap or if I need to mess around with cutting down existing spacer if it’s longer than the standard spring.
I believe the Hagons need different fork oil as well to go with there springs. IKON fork springs on the Norman Hyde site don't need this. I have not done the springs on the front forks simply because I have never experienced excessive nose dive or anything I would pin on the standard OEM springs to warrant a change. If you do change them be very interested in your feedback. Next upgrade for me is putting on the auxiliary light kit once I can source it at a cheaper price than £320
Again I would talk to Hagon who will answer all your questions and advice you properly. They also supply all the bits you need. Ride Safe. Joe.
