I ordered stiffer springs for my 1200 from progressive and because they don't make them for the Trophy any more, the tried matching other springs from other bikes. at their 3rd attempt i asked for my money back, a bloody disaster. Ordered a set from hagon, arrived within a couple of days. the bloke i spoke to did tell me the spring rate, can't remember what it was though.
Anyway, i fitted the hagons and set the rear shock to max and the bike handled a lot better in the bends and the nose dive when braking was reduced significantly. Trouble was when i stuck the wife on the back there was no more adjustment left on the rear shock which made the handling ***** due to the rear squatting. Obviously need stronger rear shock, which from Hagon is about 450 quid with remote preload adjuster (a must if wishing to adjust regularly). Had to put the stock springs back in until i can afford stronger rear shock. Dunno if that is of any help ?
