Did a web search for "Canada Racetech springs" Came up with zip. Maybe you should find the best USA deal and pay the shipping. Feel sorry seeing what you hosers have to pay for just about everything.

Could be worse. You could be one of the poor buggers lives in the UK.

May I suggest you try Sonic Springs, they are significantly less expensive (and supposedly just as good). Also, when contacting him, ask if he ships USPS.

BTW, there are sellers for Racetech in Canada but you`ll pay dearly for them.

cheers

I got mine at bikebandit.com, They can be a-holes, but they have everything and their prices are pretty good. You get another 10% off with an AMA number. Use the racetech site to get the correct spring number first. JB

Because you're a good guy, Mickey.

I logged on to say it happens all the time but don't sweat it 'cause somebody later will read it and benefit. Looking above I see it happened already.

well, if you can tell them apart, I guess it was worth the extra money.... Anyhow, good luck with your new springs, case closed.

allright.. I'll go out on a limb... Paid nothing for my upgrade. Piece of PVC tubing from home depot...(scrap) about an inch longer than stock spacer... fresh oil and my front end is 1000x better then the flattend bottoming POS it used to be. I weigh 210 in street clothes and maybe 220 geared up. My compression plugs are turned out, less one line, and testing 1.5 turns out on damping screw. About $14 total... for oil.

That would be an improvement from stock, if you were to put heaverir springs in, maybe .90, you would see an even greater improvement. It is all incremental. JB

Has anyone used sonic springs with good results? I have never heard of them but was about to buy some race techs when I came across this post. I am all for good springs at cheap prices but I need someone to help talk me into it.

Here you go. I've got RaceTechs and am happy. Based on these posts and lower price I'd have gotten Sonics
