Springs

Anyone know where I may be able to get some springs for my pedals from, want to keep them under tension so need something similar to what MK9R used in the May part of his build diary but can't think where to get them from!!

ta,
Rich.

Can see he has put a spring on the throttle as per his text, a good idea perhaps if bike carbs only have light springs I suppose to make absolutly sure the thriottle shuts, but would you need it on brake and clutch as both have fairly good inbuilt return springiness?
Could you put a bigger spring in the cable nearer the carbs?

Perhaps though if your very big and strong you need some extra spring to put any feel into the pressing of the pedals ;-)
