Original orange KTM spring rated at 69-250 - it's been used for about 19hrs on my bike so theres some rub marks off the air box but other than that it's in good condition.

The 69-250 is for riders weighing 74kg-86kg.. 11½ stone to 13½ stone.

Been told it will fit most KTM exc/sx models from 2000 to 2010 [but check first with dealer]

The springs are about £94 new from some shops [that what i just paid]

I'm after £45 ono - i'll also fit it to your rear shock if you've never done it before [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Edit to say = although i have tinternet access im not back in Wales till Monday night / Tuesday - so collection or delivery will have to wait till then.

Wp PDS 76-95-250 is ok for riders weighing 75-95 kilos - Its the same rating as the newer 72-250 WP spring.

How heavy are you Chambers?

Yeah i was slightly off there [trying to work and post at the same time see]

The weights for WP PDS 76-95-260 are 79-91 kilos give or take a few pounds.. this is as stated in the 05 KTM manual - not sure what Eibach say is right nor Ohlins or Showa etc. I'm just saying what WP and KTM say is right. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


Anyways i didn't start this thread to discuss what spring rate is suitable for you two Cat Funts.. go start your bloody own thread you pair of soding hijackers!! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

No I like it here. I assumed my spring is a 76, which is standard for my bike and year. But I can't get the sag correct, so i'm thinking it's a 78 maybe ( the top part of the numbers is worn off)
