The spring is black if I remember correctly. sub 200 lbs riders seems a bit of a low limit for a touring bike meant to carry some gear and a rider, way to go Honda lol. I mean anyone that is tall and works out like myself is going to be north of 200. I don't know what my official birthday suit weight is but at work with my boots on I'm 286 according to the shipping scale give or take a lunch haha
