Save your $90 and just cut, shim, set your sag for the the fork springs, increase the fork oil viscosity. Or if your dying to buy fork springs, by a used set from a EX500 1st gen, and then do the same to thing to them. Why you ask heavy weight spring.

Then get you a NewGen rear shock, total cost not more than $50.00 USD.
