Lots of traffic on this one...........

Who makes a 3647 progressive spring for the KDX? I haven't looked..maybe they're all over the place...

While the idea behind a progressive spring seems straightforward..if they were such great big deal..you wouldn't find RaceTech and MXTech selling straight rate springs.

I'd be more curious to read how crummy they are (and why)... :hmm:

My 97 KX 125 front end has them. I like them just fine, just had them out yesterday for a fork rebuild. If you read Gorr's handbook he does say that they are crummy, too soft for MX riding but good for trail riding. Not sure if they made them for the KDX forks or shocks.

Ooops

My HTML Windoze editor is screwed up..colors aren't right..I didn't see the 'search' option at all.

I wonder how long they are...

Thank you Mr. Wibbens. :prayer:

My bad I was just looking at 2001. They have them in 1995 though if you have an H-Series.
