They were too soft for me doing track days but a great improvement over stock. I went with a .90kg spring instead.
If you have stock springs they would be an improvement & stop the fork from bottoming out on those big bumps but still a little light for you.
.80kg springs are for a 150lb (or less) rider.
Use the race tech spring calculator to find your weight springs
