Need part numbers for 250r spring/intiminators!
Hey, I've got everything all laid out before me. Ready for a full 25k mile service and rebuild on my machine.
Parts to be serviced/replac'd include - new tires mount and balance front and rear - chain tension/clean/lube - rotor/pad/fluid/flush front rear - valve adjustment - hand grip replacement - cooling system flush/fill (water wetter/distilled) - about 47 other things The only thing I'm concerned with at this point is my front forks. I've stocked up on fork oil (5w) to replace the fluid, and need to order some slightly stiffer springs and intiminators which apparently help me adjust preload. Where's the best place to get some stiffer springs and these intiminator units? The local shop told me to look online, and I've got a list of OEM parts they recommended I replace in the process of changing springs/fluid etc. Maybe someone could point me in the right direction and tell me what I need. Pics incoming! Thanks ninjetters, you guys are awesome to deal with... much nicer than any forum I've dealt with in the past.

Fork oil... the guy in parts dept recommended something different than the guy up in sales, hopefully I got the right stuff for stiffer springs and intiminators.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B82...it?usp=sharing Some of the other stuff. Been running water wetter for the past 15k miles, no problems. So simple flush/fill. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B82...it?usp=sharing Sticky tires! So fresh and so clean! I ordered a 140 rear, up from the OEM 130... is that going to be a problem? https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B82...it?usp=sharing Thanks I need part numbers for the front stiffer springs and intiminators, if there is a FAQ link or wiki, plz include it. Gonna need to do some more research before I tackle this project... hopefully I have all the right parts.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B82...it?usp=sharing Sorry for low quality pics, have a headphone amp velcro'd to the back of my phone blocking primary phone camera, been taking pics with front-facing camera which is difficult to see and take picture at same time. Hopefully these are legible.

Springs are all pretty much the same material processed in the same way, so the finished product is pretty similar, regardless of brand. The two brands I'm most familiar with are RaceTech and Sonic Springs. I used the RT calculator and figured out what part number I needed, then just bought them from Amazon.
Intiminators have absolutely nothing to do with adjusting preload. They replace the stock damping system (basic damper rods) with a more sophisticated part. https://www.ninjette.org/forums/showthread.php?t=134135 and https://www.ninjette.org/forums/showthread.php?t=186192 have a lot of info.
