Sorry!!!
We are still waiting for the springs, manufacturer's taking their time!!
They do work very well, give superb clearance from any aftermarket exhaust fitted.

No Mav, they raise and stiffen the suspension. The Pm can sometimes bottom out on the original suspension settings (especially if you are a larger person) and it can mark the exhaust and the side cover in extreme cases. Lobby has been telling me I need these since shires last year.

i understand what they do, i just wondered if they looked "pretty" like the bitubo ones, if i'm going to spend money i want it to perform and look good at the same time, i ain't paying good money for something that looks shit

Sorry mate, misunderstood. It literally is JUST the springs, to replace the standard ones. I will paint them before reassemble though.

They changed them a bit, mine is the very first batch and BudyPhils is quite recent and they both catch at the back. In the newer ones they put in a Twist baffle to quieten them a little and they lowered the downpipe a little cos on mine...YOU CANT GET OFF THE OIL FILTER WITHOUT REMOVING THE DOWNPIPE......knobheads.
