2012 ohlins shock springs
 

Hi all

Do the springs off any other bikes fit the 2012 ohlins shock , not ttx , or is the spring specific to that shock , I'm looking for a 5.4 as iv had my forks upgraded to 4.6 .

Regards
Chris

Others are close but you're best off with the Ohlins.

Wow that was quick , thanks for the reply , I was just hoping a secondhand one off another bike would fit

What do you have right now(spring rate)? I'll have a look and see I have one ttx and one 888 but not sure which spring rates they are. Steve is right though best to go with an ohlins for perfect fit.

It's a 5.2 on it now , thanks for your kind offer but postage to the uk would be as much as a new spring , but thanks again

I'd probably look at going at a 5.6 rate spring Diggs with the .46 fork. Run a little less preload and happy days. I've used 5.2, 5.4 and 5.6.

Cheers jake , I was thinking that too but looking back at Glenn's set up he said the 5.6 was a bit too much with the 4.6 fork springs

There were some linkage changes in 2012 so maybe the chasis does require a softer spring. From memory I thought most of Glenns findings were reporting that the 48mm CC Zokes required much less spring than the 45mm OCs, and that the back end was quite similar.
