After reading several members results on the sonic 1.2 springs I jumped on the band wagon and got me a set.
Comparing the ride to the too soft front springs, the new springs felt great....however...after a few hundred miles are was growing very tired and sore from the bumps and jolts going over any type of expansion crack or seam etc.
Rich ar sonic springs was very generous and offered to send me some softer ones 1.1 and even included a return shipping label in the box. I found his customer service to be outstanding!
I installed the new springs last night with 140mm spacers, one washer, 7wt oil @125mm depth.
The results were dramatic!!!
This bike has NEVER handled so well before! It feels like my old st1100 and rolls into turns with ease.
I cannot feel any jolts or bumps through the bars anymore and feels like I am floating on air.
I guess it pays to try several different things once in a while and not just settle for the first thing you try just because everyone else liked it.
