Hyperpro fork springs + kev's spacers on XTR

Today fitted Hyperpro springs/15W fork oil + kev's spacers on my XTR. Haven't got the time to test the new suspension, but it feels a lot stiffer! I'm still playing around with combining spacers+hp springs. Maybe also have to test without spacers. It's now solid like a rock, maybe a bit to much .
Please have a look at the pics.

Greetings from a cold Holland,

Marcel

Will try without spacers soon. Sure this is way to stiff, it doesn't feel right to me
Forgot to mention that the HP springs are shorter, but the material diameter used is thicker. Original 0,53mm, HP 0,55mm. That's why they are stiffer than the original. Also thicker oil is used (10W original - 15W HP).

Kev: If you will do the stroker mod this year, for me you are again the winner of the mod awards 2009
