I have a 2007 1098s. I weight 75Kg/ 165Lbs. Can anyone suggest what rear spring rate would suit my ohlins shock and where to get one from. I mainly ride on the road with the odd track day.

Where do you live mate, few good set up people around. People I know are Steve Jordan in Leatherhead, Moto Rapido in Winchester.

Is it just a spring change? There is a thread on here last couple of days where someone posted the spring rates for ohlins by rider weight, worth a search. And a spring change isnt that difficult as a home jobbie
