I have a 2010 LXM 12, and the spring feels way too soft in the rear. What spring rate comes stock on the LXM? Where can I find a replacement for the spring?



thx

Look at the spring and see what is printed on it. Most will come with a 320lbs spring,, this is usually good for a rider from 180lbs -200lbs.

Thanks Mat, yep I'll check. I looked already, but will try again. I weigh in at around 185, so the 320 should be good. It just feels soft to me. The bike sags quite a bit when I sit on it. I alreay played with the pre-load collar.

You will want about 85mm of "race sag".. If need be, I think there are some 350lbs springs in stock.

Cool, thanks Matt. I'll look at again tonight. I may order up the 350 if I am already at 320. Is this something that I can easily swap out? Do I need a spring compressor?

No compressor needed, super easy to do.

I checked and found that it has a 320 on it. I'll call tomorrow to see what you guys have in stock. I'd like something a tad firmer.
