Ordered a pair of K-tech fork springs yesterday, should be delivered today. In the meantime I've removed the progressive WP springs and re-set the air gap.
As soon as they arrive they'll be fitted and then set the sag.

Got the shock pivot mount today. All bearings and seals changed, all greased up fitted and wheel and hugger back on.
Just a quick question. The shock pivot mount has an FR and an arrow, am I right it guessing that this writing goes on the left hand side with the arrow pointing toward the front of the bike with the writing up the right way? Just seems the shock spring is very close to the engine, we are talking mm's away.

Arrow points to the front wheel . The clearance is small till its back on its wheels .if you have a shock spacer it's even smaller .

Cheers lloydie, that's exactly how I fitted it and yes I've put in the 6mm spacer and I'd say the gap is about 2-3mm

Are the wheels alluminium?
