I am about to order a set of Hagon Nitros for my Rocket. (I can't believe how bad the stockers are!) I am going for 330mm (about 12mm longer than stock. I weigh 110kg (aprox. 240lbs) and the guy at Hagon recommended 45kg springs. Unfortunately the 45kg springs only come in black, and if I want chrome springs I have to go for the 35kgs.

Can anybody give me some advice here...will I be OK at my weight with the 35kg springs. Any body else have these?
 
I would go with what they recomend , they are the people who should know .
 
Aye up Billy im after some progressive fork springs what happened to that set you had.Did you ever fit em or can we do a deal :wink: and if you did was it better.
 
Billy, Busters done his and he recons its fantastic.Hes also raised the forks in the yokes 8mm after id done mine six and he recons it steers quicker.I may go ten millimetre now but will have to make sure i dont get a speed wobble when flat out because that is somtimes the compromise.But will try it and post .Still riding it at the minute so will wait till winter arrives.Im going to get the wilbers fork springs as i have wilbers on the rear.Does anyone no which way to turn the wilbers to soften the ride as mines like a rigid at the minute.
 

Sully's the man to ask about Wilbers....

I haven't done any serious riding for the past year due to my back problem but that's on the mend so intend to put the bike together in the spring with some money saved over the Winter 8)
 
Sympathise with you on the old back.I had a disc removed 4 years ago.It was a disaster.Couldnt even walk.
