    Hi guys,
    I am pretty certain I had seen a post on here indicating that the ohlins spring with colors of grey - red - grey represents a spring rate of 4.7kg/mm.
    The spring is 57mm ID, 80mm OD, and free length is 290mm, it is a standard WR 250 1987 spring as far as I can ascertain.
    I did do a search but my bad as could not retrieve any hits at all.

    thanking you,

    Mark
