    I need the stock fork springs (0.714) for my ape. or 0.75 would do too.

    I know I've got some but I need to find them. Are you sure you want that light? I weigh about 155 lbs and they were way too light for me on the track. Street use, maybe. Also, what are you looking to pay for a set.

    BTW, I'll be racing this weekend so I may not respond back quickly.

    Really? I am 157 lbs and the race-tech spring calculation suggests .715 for my weight for racing use (this is a track-only bike). What spring weight are you riding? The least race-tech could do was .80

    I'd recommend .85. .80 at the very lightest.

    Well, I've been known to brake after I've seen Jesus so maybe that's why I've recommended stiff springs. I still wouldn't go lighter than .80
