the springs can be seen here http://www.hpieurope.com/options.php...&partNo=103421
part number 67449 are stock orange ones and part 67452 are better red ones.

HTH

i have the red springs ordered. according to the book, there is 45wt in the rear shocks. do you think 50wt would be enough? the batteries i have are 281g each.
