can you get stronger rear springs for an LT250R, who makes them and were could i buy one, my stock one is way to soft the quad squats with a 150 pound person on it [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img] when i jup it bottoms out i need somthing really strong!! i dont got the money for a works shock ether

 

I don't think it's your spring. I think that your shock needs to be rebuilt, cause I weigh 205lbs and I only bottom mine out on BIG jumps.

 

Eibach is the most popular. Can't help you on how to get one though..

 

I weigh 200 and the quad really squats when i just get on it, and the spring is all the way tight!, so your saying that its the shock it self and not the spring that wont support me

 

Springs do evenually give out. There is a chance that your shock needs work too if the spring is weak.

Works sells springs for about $80. Check out: http://www.worksperformance.com/
You just tell 'em what make & model, what you weigh, and what kind of riding you do, and they can set you up.

I'm not sure if they'll just sell the spring without doing a re-valve job or not, but give 'em a try, and let us know what happens.

 

Ok, will due thanks, how much for a revalve job u think ?

 

You'll have to check out the website. It seems like it's about $150 or so. Read the FAQ.

 

what tension should i use i have a choise 5.1 - 8.1 KG, I weigh abour 200 so i need somthing tighter than stock spring, i am going to get an eibach spring go to www.motoworldracing.com its on that page.

 

I don't know what you're stock spring rate is, but according to my Clymer manual, my Yamaha Warrior spring rate is 5.5 KG/mm, which works out to be about 308 lb/in. I'm too lazy to do the math, but if you figure in the leverage that your swingarm provides (about 2 feet long) and how far back on the seat you sit, how much you weigh, how much the bike weighs--you could probably figure it out.

...OR, you could go to the Eibach website, get their phone number, call them, and let them tell you what you should get. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
