    Does anyone have a source and/or experience with some stiffer shock springs for the 81, 82 ohlins piggybacks? Maybe Race Tech or Eibach? 240lbs. These are the ones I have. Way too soft.

    Tried Drew. He says he's a little low on heavier spring choices right now. Anybody else tried some different spring suppliers?
