frt spring set up for fat guys

[Guest BIGGERJIM]

Like i said in an earlier post i put springs fork seals and fresh oil

in my 2001 v11 sport.

i just thought i would tell the other big boys what worked for me.

1-i got the 1.1 springs

2.7 wt fluid from honda

3-110mm air gap maybe 100mm my measuring stick was not very accurate

4. i cut the spacers the same length as stock minus the differance in stock and 1.1 springs

i am 6 ft and 301lbs and this worked great for me.

i did take it apart three times and change the spacers last time was the charm.

it really wasn't that tough of a job

thanks to the information from you fellas.......

Do you have plans for the rear shock?

I would guess you would need at least a 600#/in spring, Maybe a 650#/in.

hey dlaing

 

i sure do, it needs something,, mighty stiff

will try to adjust, but, i don't have much faith that's going to do it.

when the wife cools down from the ev11.

it has to have a new ecu, she is still smarting from that lol lol

i had good luck with sonic springs i will probably call on them agian.
