Spring rates
« on: June 10, 2009, 05:34:50 AM »
Anyone know if there is a difference between rear spring rates/stiffness between CB550s and 750s?

All CB750 after the sandacsts were 110 lb. rate, straight wound.
The 500 came with 80/110 progressives. Sorry, don't know about the 550.
See SOHC4shop@gmail.com for info about the gadgets I make for these bikes.
