smithpa68 Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 Hi. I am searching for a heavier spring for the shock on my 2003 Sherco 2.9. I have contacted the USA Sherco importer but had no luck. So, I am now scouring the internet and hoping for some luck in cyberspace. Any leads would be very much appreciated. I love riding this bike around but i am 230lbs so the stock springs are just not enough. Thanks Scott Smith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of recall someone over here having some springs made for the Beta or something. Might be worth posting the question on the Beta threads as well, of spring suppliers that is.

tony27 Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 Try finding a topfun dealer if they still exist, used to list heavier springs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not positive but I believe the 07 Shercos shortened their swingarm and stiffened the spring. I believe the spring was a red one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithpa68 Posted December 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Thanks for the tips. Already talking to Adrian. He has those sweet TRP shocks, but I can't justify putting a shock that cost that much on a bike worth only about $1500. I will try to look up Top Fun. Their website looks geared toward Motocross now. I dropped Firstgear a note too. Thanks for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copemech Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Works Performance actually lists a shock for the older bikes that is more cost effective. I have no Idea just how well they work, as feedback has been poor to nil! I think they have a heavy spring option as well, yet I have no idea if it would fit your shock body, as the spring diameters and lengths may vary, as they do with the newer shocks. Seems the older shocks were not adjustable, probably undersprung and overdamped for trick riders! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
