White House K10 - a story of regeneration

Thanks PB, I will.

So, rear shocks sorted, what about the fronts?

It was a 50/50 guess to whether the previous owner changed the fork springs for HyperPro. The only answer was to take them out and have a look and this is what I found.

John (HyperPro) thought that the springs were non-standard and so by inference were likely to be their springs. I had no reason to doubt his suggestion until a week or so later my Honda workshop manual arrived and I rifled through it to check. The photos in that look very similar, stating a minimum length for the stock spring of 328mm, and since mine are just over 330mm I'm now betting they are standard. I would welcome any input here. I did buy some 15 weight fork oil for a refil on the basis they were HyperPro , but now note that the Book states to use 5 weight. Should I compromise at 10 weight?

Of course, with the bike in pieces I've done my research on the forum and am now thinking it would be an opportune time to replace them anyway, so the decision is between the 2017 SDBV forks or the Andreani inserts.. Hmmm...
