Confused with progressive front springs GS1000E 1979

Thanks for the reply, when I sit on the bike it seems a little low. I was a little concerned about bottoming out with the fairing touching the mudguard. Have remounted the fairing 2 inches lower than in the avatar. There is 83mm total left once the forks are settled Unfortunately the GS is on a SORN with no MOT so not able to test out.

thats a shame, but i bet you could sneak in a few little jaunts up and down your street and just have a feel braking on the front only, seeing what sort of feel you are getting.
