Moin lieber Leute,
Ich schreibe weiter auf English, weil mir das einfacher ist. Antworter auf Deutsch ist voll prima
I have a lovely TR1, which I have modified, in fact backdated, over the last decade:
For more background:
https://www.tr1.de/pages/forum.php?iQuery=num=1310336849;start=allNow I'm revising the entire front end and after reading the positive experiences with progressive springs, I decided to go for Wirth springs.
Before putting it all back together I have a few questions for the more experienced progressive-drivers around:
I read about good experiences with 12,5 oil (mixing 10 and 15 50/50%)
I read about good experience with welding the two upper holes in the fork-piston
But, what is advisable: doing both at once, or either of the two options? I imagine these measures have more or less the same effect. Don't want to over do it. I'm a relaxed tour driver, 75kg, no sporty stuff required, rarely a passenger.
(yes, I can try, but that requires building twice, which costs more time than asking advice in advance
and secondly: For both drivability and looks I lowered the innerrods 15mm through the tripletree in the past.
I guess with the stiffer wirth suspension I will end up with a higher front end, wanting to lower it even more. I can stick it through even more, but I dislike the look of the forklegs sticking out on top. Has anybody tried to shorten the fork by chopping the wirth springs and compensating with a bush under the small spring, or by just adding the bush and giving the Wirth spring more pre-load?
(also here: yes I can try what effects this has, and how the modified negative suspension travel behaves, but with limited time I beter first ask
)
