I'm a bit confused. I have a '00 SXR 700 in need of new front shock spring previous owner ran them too tight and springs now have taken a set and I think it best to replace. The problem I have is when looking at the Yamaha parts finders I don't see a p/n for the stock spring just 5 optional p/n's. My question is does anybody know how these optional springs compare to the stock ones. The parts finders show specs like K=1.7 or K=1.1-1.9.2.1

they are triple rate, but i dont remember the exact rates
I hated the triple rate springs, if it was me I would take the 1.7 or 1.9 straight rate...
Maxx Perf sells all different forces of springs but if you are a lighter person go with the 1.7 and 2.3 if heavier....thats in the oem springs...
Stock spring rate is 1.3-2.1-2.5 kg/mm. This is a triple rate
