Do you guys no where I can buy a heavy duty spring for my rear shock on '08 Busa? Do I have to replace the entire shock? I need to stiffen up the rear suspension with my 6" over swingarm extentions.
Ive got the HD spring from All things Chrome, I got for my 240 kit, but never ended up using it, which cost me an undertail
Anyway, they sell em for $185, Ill give it to ya for $140 shipped.
Sounds like a plan. Is it hard to replace the spring. I will have my shop do it, I just want to get an idea how's it's done. Do you have paypal?
Why do u need to swap the spring. Is it rubbing? I only ask cause Im a big guy and was going to stretch mine just 4inches. I ride two up sometimes and I want to avoid any rubbing. Have u tried tighting down the spring itself?

Yep mine is rubbing. I have mine stretch 6 inches and lowered 2 inches in back and 1 inch in the front. She only rubs with a passenger on the back. I'm 180lbs and my passenger about 170lbs or so (she's not fat, just thick ) You might not have a problem with rubbing if your bike isn't lowered, but then again at 240lbs and then adding a passenger will put some more leverage on the stock shock and spring.
I don't think you have a problem. Now that you posted her weight she will never speak to you again anyway

I can understand that. I dont plan on lowering mine (but i do love that look). Im only doing a 4 inch stretch and from what i was told I should be ok. I do plan to stiffin the stock sping up a bit and see how that goes. With your 6 inch stretch how is your handling?
