Increased stability
I was wondering if it is supposed to be run with luggage in the Pannier or in daily use without the Pannier.
We replaced the OEMSuspension because we were concerned about the firmness and rebound of the OEMSuspension, especially when going over bumps.
After replacing the ring, the shock when going over bumps is reduced and the stability at the corner ring is increased.
It also has a lowdown effect of about 15m when riding, which improves the footing. (We are 171cm tall and have a long torso, Japan human body type)
I am satisfied with the performance of the Large, but the cost of the product and labor (Red Baron) was less than 100,000 yen, so I have given it a low cost-performance rating.

Fits: KAWASAKI ZX-25R, KAWASAKI ZX-25R SE
Effective
1G´ was about 40%, so it was installed for adjustment.
Installation requires an octagonal Special Tool on the OEMTop cap. 34mm or larger MONKEY is also acceptable.
25R is relatively easy because there is no damping adjustment etc. on the Top, so the Cap just stops at the Nut.
In addition, you should also loosen the RightCap and adjust it to Large atmospheric pressure, if you loosen it. Pshaw." And it sounded pretty good.
We weigh 65kg, and 10 clicks out of 30 clicks of adjustment range settled at 1G´30%.
There are still 20Clicks remaining, so there is plenty of room for adjustment.
I think the Gold color is closer to Orange than OEM, but I am generally satisfied.

Thank God we have this Spring!
The front and rear suspension of the MVAGUSTA F3-800RC is very stiff and not rideable.
Spring rate before and after must be dropped.
This Hyper pro spring is for the F4-Brutale 800, but it could be used for its sibling, the F3, because it has the same suspension. Also, the fact that the F4-BRUTALE800's ride quality was improved according to Webike's impressions was also a boost.
To replace the spring, the rear suspension must be removed by jacking up the rear side, and the spring must be removed with a special tool. This requires a certain amount of maintenance skill. If you find it difficult, you should ask a specialized store to do the work.
After replacement, a test run with the 1G sag together showed that the Rear suspension operates more effectively than the OEM Spring. The bumps on the road surface were reduced. And the ground feel at the Corner was also improved.
However, F3 still feels hard in the latter half of Stroke even after Spring replacement, probably due to the LINK characteristic problem of Rear suspension. After this Spring replacement, we introduced an external LINK for one rider, and finally the ride quality became satisfactory.
Finally, I am very happy with this Hyper pro Spring, but I gave it 4 stars because I felt the price was too high.

I would like those who find R7 hard to ride to give it a try!
When I first started working on the R7, the Rear suspension was always a concern.
I weigh about 53kg, and adjusting the pre-road and damping settings alone did not give me the right balance I wanted, and when I set the dampers too firm, the rear end would go wild and I would feel noticeably tired. I had them installed at the store in the hope that it would help. As a result, the feeling of the bumps on my buttocks on the way to my house and the feeling of the ground when I turn have changed considerably, so if you are dissatisfied with the Rear suspension but not with the R7, I recommend you to consider it.

Not available for 2023 installation
I bought it and could not install it. It was too different from the 2022 model. View detail
The front fork is now capable of tenacious running!
[How is it used?
The front fork spring on the NORMAL was replaced because it had become worn out.
Was the one you received as per Image?
The packaging and package were fine. I could not tell at a glance whether the Spring inside was a Reinforcement Spring or not, but I could feel the thickness and the unsettledness of the Pitch, and I could feel the motivation.
Was the installation difficult?
Since the supplied Fork oil was too hard, we replaced only the Spring, so it was easy to replace without removing the Fork.
How was your experience with it?
It seems to be a stiffer Spring, but since we used OEM viscosity Fork oil, it is not that uncomfortable. It is easier to pick up Gap on the road surface, but it is easier to step on the Corner ring, and it is possible to drive tenaciously.
[Included Parts:were they on?
Fork oil and Instruction Manualetc. are included.
[Was there anything that disappointed you?
None in particular, Rear suspension and Quantity of Hyper pro:Set use can be even more effective.
When replacing the Rear Suspension from NORMAL, the Fork tends to be left in NORMAL, but the Quantity:We hope that you will try this because replacing the set with a new one will further improve the driving experience.

Fork movement became smooth and moist.
SR 2014 MODEL. change in Spring's experience correctly? I wanted to know the change in the experience of Spring, so I used SROEM Yamaha No. 10 Oil. As a result, the leg was finished for long distance touring. It's very good, supple and sticky. View detail
Fits perfectly!
About quality and texture Great Quality. Fork oil is already included About the feeling of use More appropriate for street riding. Products to buy together Fork Seals Difficulty of installation 3/5 Medium Difficulty Cost performance and comparison with other products - Great replacement to the 30 y.o. stock springs About shipping and packaging - Great Packaging View detail

They're not the same color
I bought this because I thought it was the only way to get the Setting out of MT-07's NORMAL front suspension.
The suspension was originally small and did not absorb impact at all, so using this suspension only made it stiffer.
At some point, I noticed that One Side was missing and ordered the same thing from the Manufacturer.
But the item received was not at all the same color as the original.
Manufacturer is selling this as Gold, but it was so far off the mark that they are now dealing with Objection.
I tried to upload the photos, but for some reason an error prevented me from doing so, so I'm sorry I can't show you the details.

Punishment is outstanding.
I felt that the front suspension of my 2017 vSTROM650 was getting worn out after 40,000 km, and I was dissatisfied with the NORMAL suspension because it was not supple enough to begin with, so I decided to take the plunge and replace it.
I am an amateur, but I lifted up the body of the car by myself, removed the oil from the top, and then removed the spring from the top and installed it.
The work was simple, but the front fork cap was hard and unstable, so it was difficult to do and took about three hours.
After the replacement, they are more supple and softer than the normal ones, and the road surface tracking performance has improved and the ride quality is better.
If I wanted, I would prefer to have an adjustable function even if the price is higher, but even as it is, it is much better than NORMAL.
If the Spring becomes worn out after several tens of thousands of kilometers, it will be replaced with the same one.
(As a side note, I was so impressed with the improvement of the Front that I installed a suspension from Bird's in the Rear as well. It is also much better than OEM)
Even just by replacing the suspension, the suspension is improved and absorbs the impact of rough roads, and is stable even at high speeds.

Rear suspension replacement as needed.
There are few options for VFR800F Suspension replacement, say Hyper pro, Ma Birdos and NITRON.
And here are some impressions of this STREETBox.
In conclusion, the part of the OEM that I thought would be better is the Large ?.
(1) The ride is considerably stiffer and stiffer.
(2) The habitual and special body posture of the VFR800F is broken.
(iii) Setting range is wide, but it is difficult to exceed the performance of VFR800F.
First, the stated Flexible under a weak load and sturdy under a strong load. but Spring itself is quite thick and Rate (Load capacity) is high and always bouncing when driving.
To be precise, when it reaches a step and sinks, it suddenly bounces as if it has hit a bine and a wall.
The front spring is affected by the oil level and thrust, and the spring shrinks under the weight of the vehicle alone, and there is almost no stroke from that point on. The vehicle body posture at the stationary position is forward and the handlebar is cut into more than necessary.
A Spring rate that sinks and then rises abruptly will naturally have a much shorter Stroke amount.
Therefore, it becomes difficult to turn and follow the road surface by taking advantage of Stroke.
It always feels burly and bouncy.
Rear is similarly difficult to get a non-etc.Rate is difficult to get a stroked and immediately feels like it is sticking out.
However, it is said that if a vehicle with cantilever swing arm is stroked blindly to pursue ride comfort, the negative aspects of sports driving will increase.:I think it makes sense for Rate's Spring to rise suddenly when Grayt's sinks.
However, the ride quality will deteriorate, but you will be able to feel the tread when a strong load is applied, so if you want to enjoy Gymkhana-type sports driving or circuit driving, it is essential to replace the rear suspension.
For other purposes, OEM is sufficient. If it's just about ride comfort, OEM, with all the Pre-road, all the damping, and a bobbly suspension is better. (The pass is bouncy and scary, though.)

A little different than expected.
Gixxer is a good motorcycle with a Large change, but the cost of the motorcycle is still affecting the suspension, so I decided to customize it to improve it. The main Situation is Winding, and I changed Spring to Hyperpro for both front and rear.
The front spring was softer than expected, and the progressiveness was mild. I put in the specified amount of DamperOil (140mm) and drove on a mountain pass. The movement was better than Normal, but it sometimes bottomed out when fully breaking. So, I increased the OilLevel by 20mm and tried again, and it did not bottom out if only full brake, but it still bottomed out when stepping on the gap during full brake.
For these reasons, the Spring may provide a higher quality ride than the NORMAL for those who mainly drive around town or those who do not do full bottoming of the front suspension for breaking, but it may be a little insufficient for those who drive sporty.
At least, not for the purpose of making it as hard as possible.

Setting can be done in various ways
The front is also Hyper pro, so I decided to use Hyper pro for the Rear as well. The suspension has a good performance for the price, and the restoration resistance is not too stiff. View detail
It's going to be pretty stiff.
I replaced it because I was afraid of the squishy NORMAL. It was so much fun because it held its ground even with Hard Brakes. View detail
Satisfied with the balance of the ride and the transmission of road conditions!
I changed to XADVFront suspension. I was on my way back from a test drive immediately after the replacement in the rain, but the fine vibration transmitted to my hand felt hard at first, but even on a rough road surface, it did not rattle strongly and only fine vibrations were transmitted to my hand. Unfortunately, it was raining, but thanks to feeling this fine vibration, I could feel the grips even on the rainy Corner, and I was able to drive through without anxiety. After that, I went on a touring trip to Hokkaido and drove about 1,300 km, and what I felt was that there are many places where the road surface is quite rough with small cracks and small sinkholes even on seemingly clean paved road surfaces as a characteristic of paved roads in snowy areas. However, we are not always subjected to strong shocks, but only to minor vibrations. [Color] I have the impression that the car cleared the road. So, even on rough road surfaces in the latter half of the touring, I can pass through them without any worries, without trying to avoid them, so I feel very safe. I feel that it is a little inferior to the very smooth impression of the BP suspension that was used for the front of my Triumph T100 before, but I cannot deny that there are parts that feel hard due to the transmission of fine vibration, but the vibration is not angular, and because of that, I feel that I can lean with confidence even on corners. However, the vibration is not angular, and the driver can lean with confidence even in cornering. One drawback is that the special tool for removing and fixing the upper fixing screw when replacing the inverted suspension is not available in the quantity.:I would have appreciated it even more if you could set it.

Installed on a Gixxer 250.
The Gixxer SF250 is only compatible with the Gixxer SF250, so the installation shop installed it on the Gixxer 250 with the understanding that the spec. would be slightly different.
The Gixxer 250's Normal suspension left some thrust even when the damping was reduced, but the difference was immediately apparent from the moment I sat in the Seat.
Before introducing this suspension, we had changed to custom seats, but the slightly shorter spring made the footing stickier and more secure.
The ride quality has improved considerably, and it is easier to make a good rack for turning. The car now sticks reasonably well while turning, which gives me a greater sense of security and makes driving more enjoyable.
Rear springs need to be assembled by a manufacturer, which requires a certain amount of cost and effort, but the satisfaction level of the installation is very high.

Purchased for both comfort and performance
I thought 2 was normal for OEM, but I bought this product because I was wondering if it was possible to have it both ways.
The conclusion was that I don't know, but it was about as good as it could be.
It's like stepping on Corner rather than Pre 2 but keeping the comfort level.
Perhaps those who buy this product are in a very niche world, but I think it is suitable for such people!

The ride was terrible.
I thought it would be possible to go with this model since it was so dramatically better than the MT-07,
When the car stopped, the body of the car stood up so much that the Rear was lowered so much that it looked unattractive, and the Side Stand Extension was also removed.
The ride is firmer than NORMAL no matter how soft I adjust it, and the meter visor shakes violently every time I go over a bump. 200km/day was fine with NORMAL... I'll be driving with Gel Zab for a while. I don't like the color of the Gel Zab.
