Howdy,
2 Progressive Suspension fork spring sets are compatible for use on the Thruxton and available at less cost than the Ikon set

#11-1145, free length 18" (457mm), 40/65 lbs per inch

#11-1122, free length 20" (508mm), 45/70 lbs per inch

These compare to the Ikon progressive fork spring set,
#113, free length 19" (475mm), 46/69 lbs per inch

Cheers.........Agro

I just put a set of Progressive 11-1126 fork springs in my Thruxton.

11-1126
18" free length used a 2.5" spacer 10 weight fork oil @ 140mm from the top of the compressed fork.

35/50 rate

These will compliment the Progressive 412 shocks that are going on the back end.

I just fitted the 11-1145 Progressive fork spring set to my Thruxton, These are comparable to the Ikon Thruxton spring set.
Progressive cost $120 Oz dollars from myTriumph dealer and Ikons would have cost $165 Oz.

You guys in the U.S. and Canada can buy progressives for $60-70 USD delivered compared to Ikons from Bellacorse or NewBonneville for $110-120 USD plus delivery!

Cheers...............Agro
