Hi,

If Hill don't have the time, I can look at my CB72'62 forks.
I'm also in the process of new springs (CB450 K0), check this link :

I'm interested how much you have to pay for your springs, compared to mine.
I changed my springs in the CB72'67 (aluminium forks) and it makes a big difference in handling (much better).

Len,
Your welcom man, and yea the 21 helmets show was awesome! I'll let you know the measurements on Friday unless someone gets there first.
And as for the bikes list, I dont own all those anymore, their just all the bikes i've rebuilt and then sent on their way ;) ....never selling the CB77 though haha

Cheers

Thanks G!
I'll see what racetech has that will work.

Jensen,
Thanks for the informative link! Also, what springs did you use on the aluminum lower (CB77) forks?

I'll let you guys know what I find as far as aftermarket springs and or what info I get from Racetech.

Having a not too fun time with race tech spring calculator, I a'm going to be more careful, next time. Their system lead me to believe I had ordered the right spring wt., upon installing them way too stiff, 25% restocking fee sucks!
