DescriptionThe whole story

Öhlins part number 08790-95 is a pair of fork springs rated at 9.5 N/mm, 260 mm long with a 25.5 mm inner diameter. Getting the rate right restores the static sag the chassis was designed around.

How Öhlins Makes Them

The finish is applied after setting, which means the coating does not affect the rate. Shafts are hardened and surface-treated so the seal has a consistent surface to run against. Production has stayed in Sweden since the company was founded in 1976.

Size and Rate

At 260 mm free length and 25.5 mm inner diameter, this spring is dimensionally interchangeable with anything of the same size — the rate is what makes it a different part.

What This Rate Does

A firm rate holds the chassis attitude when the front or rear is loaded hard. Firm rates also suit machines carrying luggage as a matter of course. Support under braking improves; small-bump comfort gives a little back. Road surfaces are the hardest test of a spring rate, because the fork has to cope with both a smooth stretch and a broken one.

Applications

A spring is one of the few suspension parts that is genuinely interchangeable: same bore, same free length, and it goes in. The safest way to choose is by static sag: set the target figure, and the rate follows from whether you can reach it with preload. Öhlins lists no fixed model here — the spring is defined by its measurements, and any fork with matching dimensions can take it.

Fitting

Set static sag after fitting; the rate is only right if the sag figure lands where Öhlins specifies. Oil level is measured from the top of the tube with the fork compressed and the spring removed. Springs are supplied ready to fit; no cutting, grinding or packing is needed.

Road Approval

Road approval: springs are not separately type-approved in Germany because they substitute a part that is already homologated with the fork. Model-specific documents, where they exist, are named above.

Fitting and Setup Service

Öhlins components deliver what they promise once they are fitted and set up properly. As an authorised Öhlins service centre we do exactly that in house — installation, service and setup. Simply ask if you would like us to take care of it.
