    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Are you looking at stock springs or after market? Stock springs are usually cheaper and of good quality, EBC HD springs are a good buy, they are usually 12-15% stiffer then stock though not bad, Barnett HD springs not sure the cost on them, though they are really stiff springs, need a good grip for them.

In my rebuild I had unkowningly had the Barnett's I had bought from a friend, he didn't tell what they were at the time lol. I replaced them with the EBCs springs and man what a difference, lots easier to engage the clutch now.
 
I got a set of Barnett's through Bike Bandit for $20 and change.
 
well thanks for input , guess aftermarket springs are better the oem
