    While the springs are off, measure extended free length, and inside diameter. Note this for reference later if needed.

    An important consideration, I do not recall seeing posted is the weight of the rider.
    Yup .. I'll be taking them to the suspension shop likely Friday or next Monday.
    My riding weight? 225# ungeared

    New Podium 1.5's were dropped off at the suspension shop. They're going to dyno the shocks and check actual spring rates early next week. They'll go from there regarding new springs.

    Shocks have been dyno'd. The suspension tuner feels that the OEM valving will still play well with heavier springs. They decided to go with some Ohlin 45n/m springs as a safe choice. These equate to about 255lb/in. Bummer is, only (one) spring was stateside. The other is on its way from Sweden. Took awhile as they had been prepping for Daytona, where their team rider won the 200..

    I have the Fox Podium 1.5 front shocks, along with Ohlins 235# springs. Much better.
