I think they might be the wrong way round

Mines are 175 at the front and 250 (I think) at the rear, too.
Just checked with MNR about a week ago, too, so sure...

No, the info is correct. I changed my fronts to 150lb and got a much better ride on the road.

Hi

The front inboard has the 175 Lb. The rears are 250Lb as supplied by MNR. But most are now using 175 ish Lb at the rear also. Gives far better compliance and ride quality.

Cheers Matt

Tony, if you look at the ends of the springs, the poundage will be written on them.

I had 250lb on the rear and as Matt has said changed them to 175lb.
