Hi,
I'm looking to make my bike more comfortable by adjusting the suspension to my weight. Have the Ricor Intiminators installed already.
Does anybody know the standard Speedmaster front spring length? This will save me pulling them out and measuring the springs.
I couldn't find a set of linear springs for my bike anywhere so I'm hoping there is a set for a bonneville/thruxton that might fit.
Rohit

I don't know the spring length but you can adjust your Intiminators by adding or removing shims.
I don't quite know how it works but Im sure if you called Ricor and gave them your info and told them what you were feeling they could help guide you.

I measured both of the stock from my 07Speedmaster. One was slightly over 17 3/4 the other was just under 17 7/8 inches.

Thanks guys, looks like the bonneville springs are a no go. Will try adjusting the Intiminators.
