As finnpaso says, Öhlins good f 1 thin rider.
I got the spec f the spring directly from factory spec, only 42 Nm!
I have ridden a 750 w Öhlins original, soft but worked good.
I`d either sevice the Öhlins or sell all 3 and get a Wilbers fully adjustable.
NOTE: Paso w original Öhlins - high cred... :thumbup:

I still REALLY wonder, what is the spec of spring f a 80-90-100 etc kg rider on a 907?
It has a special linkage so no normal answers.

I have a Penske w 550 US spring, seems too stiff f me (95kg).
I asked Öhlins, Penske & Wilbers f spring rate, no answer....

Wilbers good, but cost is very high. hydraulic pre load adjuster is excellent.

After 2500km tour, loaded up, no rubbing on tray, still same ride at the end of the day, OZ roads a bit rough at times :wacko:
