Stronger valve springs for my Thruxton

Hi Guys,

Is there somebody who can help me with the following thing? I'm looking for stronger valvesprings for my 2007 Thruxton. We did a lot of tuning on the bike and one of the things we did is bring up the rev limiter to over 9.250 Rpm. For that I need stronger valvesprings but at this moment I don't know where to get them. Do you know some addresses??

you can get speed triple inner valve springs and modify your head to accept both the stock springs and the speed triple inner springs. My head has them, but I didn't do the work myself so I don't know the exact details.
