So now I have a slow 600, that's what it feels like at least. The front suspension is definitely more compressed so I'll put in the ex500 fork springs. The ex500 people have specs on the rear springs and they say our spring is actually harder, makes sense since our swing arm is a touch longer. I'm going to swap to the shorter ex500 swing arm and play around with 250/500 spring combinations. Maybe use the 250 spring and the 500 shock and make a spacer so the preload adjuster functions the same. Way more power but I need to lighten this bike a lot now.
