The 91339 61mm V1 was in error, should be 2.30lb/in, the yellow is correct at 2.40 ... with that said, the factory spring ratings should be used as a 'reference' with a bit of a grain of salt, it is not uncommon for variances from said ratings, sometimes significantly .. I have tested hundreds of springs (both new and used) and many came in heavier/lighter than the rating, sometimes they were off more than the color on either side, especially on those with a rating separation of only .10 lb/in from factory ... then run them for a few weeks, test again, and you may have even a new set of #'s ...

Edit to add: ... The V1's did seem to more often have a variance than the V2 however, of those I have tested ....
