Under braking a soft spring lets the fork run through its stroke and the geometry with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight-wound, constant rate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree length 390 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasured spring rate 8.5 N\/mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied as a pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInner diameter 26.7 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eÖhlins part number 08605-85\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eManufacture and Tolerance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach spring is set before it is measured, so it will not settle and lose rate in service. The wire is progressively wound where the application calls for it and straight where it does not. Every Öhlins dealer can re-valve the unit, because the shim stack is a documented, serviceable assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins lists this spring for Kawasaki ZXR750 (1989–1990). Öhlins lists these applications from its own fitment work; rate selection on top of that is a matter of weight and use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSize and Rate\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDimensionally this is a 26.7 mm × 390 mm spring; within that envelope Öhlins offers a range of rates, and this one is 8.5 N\/mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere This Rate Belongs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRates here suit a solo rider of typical weight on a road-going machine. This is the middle of Öhlins' range — the rate most riders of average weight end up on once sag is set properly. Ride quality on the road is decided by rate first and damping second.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat Fitting Involves\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFork oil should be replaced at the same time — it is already out of the leg. Once fitted, ride the machine before making damping changes: the new rate alters what the clicks do. Fitting is a fork-oil job: the legs come apart, the springs go in, the oil level is set to specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoad approval: a German ABE exists for the listed applications. Keep the document with the vehicle papers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and Setup Service\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins recommends that its suspension is fitted by an authorised service centre.
