What weight spring was put on your rear shock??
Sorry, I've looked in all the usual places, but can't find the invoice. I went with the spring recommended on their web site using the spring calculator. I had the work done locally, shock rebuilt with Gold Valve Kit and spring replacement with adapter collar.

EDIT - i just came across this thread while looking for recommendations for new fork springs. I went out the garage and found the Race Tech box with the stock Honda spring in it. The Race Tech spring is a: RT SK SPR 58.2x152 23.2kg (1300#)

I re-did my rear spring earlier this year, in the spring, naturally.
I can't recall if it was a 1300 or 1700, but it was stiff.

Some nice ST-owners helped me swap it at the Indiana tech event, in the Spring! (Naturally)

Big difference when one up and two up. No bottoming out on RR track or speed dips.

Ohh... mine was from Traxxion. Just FYI.

Found some of the emails, it was a 1300# spring in the back, 1.2 springs in the front.

Just my experience, worth what ya pay. ..

I sent the numbers if our weights, the type of bike and usual riding and they sent a spring after payment.
