I need a stiffer spring for my hybrid LCPVS. The swingarm I am using is almost 3" longer and I weigh 225lbs. Who can supply a stiffer spring at what cost? Or who can supply a shock and at what cost? A north American supplier would be helpful, Thanks!

Perhaps one from an F4i ..although one with an attached reservoir will not fit well at all.
Hows about an RZ shocker ?? or an fz unit for even more stiffness? cheap enuff to find and try.

Maxton shocks normally retail around about the 500 pounds mark however I have used him before to respring my GSXR shock and it was about 60 pounds from memory.

Paula, Ohlins dealers can provide different springs to suit the riders weight, also they have a good dealer network.
