Just got a ohlins ya606 rear shock for my 08 r6 and needed to change .95 spring to a .90 spring for my weight (140lbs). They didn't have a .90 steel spring but had titanium one at the last track day i was at so I bought it on trusting the recommendations of the local track suspension expert. Can anyone chime in on pros and cons of having ti spring vs. steel, other then weight loss?
Just to get a better understanding for the different types of spring based on actual users reviews. Isn't that the purpose of having an r6 discussion forum?oke
Titanium springs are also more responsive, allowing the rear shock to keep up more with the changes in surface, providing a more positive grip and feel, while also providing more rider feedback....in theory...im too poor to own one...:laugh
the only downside is price. and other people trying to steal it.
