There are a lot of us that would be VERY interested in the spring outcome. A search by some people for lighter springs about 2 years ago yielded nothing...

What was the price for the pair of springs?

When you get them can you take some pics of a side by side comparison? Also, if you have a postal scale or something like it, you can get a ballpark guesstimate of spring pressure by putting a stock/Dynojet spring standing up on the scale, zeroing it, compress the spring, and take a reading. Not very scientific but close enough to compare the two.




The DynoJet springs are much lighter. The springs themselves are actually longer but as a result have a much lighter compression.

The result in the carb? Well, first, understand I already have drilled slide vacuum ports. With that in mind, I found no noticable throttle response, however I did notice that when downshifting to deccelerate, the engine tended to rev higher and not slow the bike down as much.

My final verdict is, if you're squeamish about taking a drill to your carb slides, then invest the ten bucks to buy lighter springs...and then let the rest of us know how it works out! Otherwise I believe there is such a thing as a too-light slide return.

I apologize for not having pics. None of my photos turned out...
