How do I know which spring fits my motorcycle?<\/h4>\n\t\n\t\tUse our spring selector by brand, model, and year.\t<\/span>\n\t\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
\n\t
\n\t\t

Go to our \"Find your spring<\/a>\" page and select your motorcycle\u2019s brand, model, and year. You\u2019ll immediately see an overview of all compatible front and rear springs. We only show springs that are technically compatible with your bike \u2014 so they\u2019ll always fit.<\/p>\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n\t

Which spring matches my weight?<\/h4>\n\t\n\t\tYour weight determines the required spring stiffness.\t<\/span>\n\t\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
\n\t
\n\t\t

Each spring has a recommended weight range. When choosing your spring (or consulting a dealer), your ready-to-ride weight is taken into account. This helps avoid suspension that\u2019s too soft or too stiff, which affects comfort, control, and traction.<\/p>\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n\t

What\u2019s the difference between front and rear springs?<\/h4>\n\t\n\t\tFront springs are in the fork, rear springs on the shock absorber.\t<\/span>\n\t\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
\n\t
\n\t\t

The front suspension absorbs impacts from the front wheel and affects steering. Rear springs are mounted on the shock and contribute to grip, traction, and comfort. Both are crucial to ride performance, which is why MX-Springs delivers them custom-fit for each bike and purpose.<\/p>\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n\t

Can I order as a private customer?<\/h4>\n\t\n\t\tNo, only dealers can place orders.\t<\/span>\n\t\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
\n\t
\n\t\t

MX-Springs supplies exclusively to certified dealers. As a private customer, you can browse products via the spring selector and will soon be directed to a dealer near you. This dealer can place orders, handle installation, and advise you on the correct settings.<\/p>\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n\t

How do I request a dealer account?<\/h4>\n\t\n\t\tUse the form on our dealer page.\t<\/span>\n\t\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
\n\t

\n\t

How do I find the right spring for my bike?<\/h4>\n\t\n\t\tUse the tool, download the full PDF, or submit the bulk order form.\t<\/span>\n\t\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
\n\t
\n\t\t

For larger orders, use the Bulk Order Form to easily search and filter by motorcycle, year, or spring type.<\/p>\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n\t

How do I know if a spring fits my model year?<\/h4>\n\t\n\t\tAlways select the exact year via the selector.\t<\/span>\n\t\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
\n\t
\n\t\t

Even small differences between model years can affect spring compatibility. Always use the official selection method: brand > model > year. This ensures 100% accurate and compatible results<\/p>\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n\t

How do I maintain my suspension?<\/h4>\n\t\n\t\tHave it inspected and cleaned regularly.\t<\/span>\n\t\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
\n\t
\n\t\t

Suspension is subject to wear. Keep the exterior clean and have your dampers inspected and springs checked for corrosion or deformation at least once per season. Consult your dealer or download our maintenance guide for full instructions.<\/p>\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
