I can't figure out their spring calculator thingee...

I recently got some fork legs from a 2002 Ducati Monster S4 with 9k miles.  I know I need a .95 spring, but I can't figure out what part number that is.

Anybody know?


Since I'll have them cracked up, any recommendations for fork oil, or are they all the same?  Any suggestions on oil weight?


Thanks in advance.

.95 is pretty stiff for most Monsters and riders.

How much do you weigh?

695

I weigh 200ish and installed .95 in my 695.  I'm not a very experienced rider, but it feels good to me.  Firm, but not overly harsh.

Part# FRSP S382795

The last 2 digits are the rate, so .85 would be S382785, 1.0 would be S382710, etc.

that's a pretty personal question.  I think you owe me a beer for that one.

Today I weighed 215.  My blood type is O positive Wink
