Right then, this is the deal, I've ordered (and installed) new progressive replacement lowering springs for my FZ6 from Hyperpro. According to the manual that came with the springs (here and here), the progressive part of the spring (where the coils are closer together) should USUALLY be mounted upwards. According to my Haynes manual, the fork springs go with the progressive part at the bottom (as were my stock springs when I took them out).
The question is: does it really matter which way round they go??? And if so, which way is that?
At the moment, my rear shock has the progressive part at the top (as that's the way Hyperpro said to mount it) and the fork springs are the other way round as that's the way Yamaha did it originally!
