Real stiff front forks. Had the bike 3 months. New tires. Supposed all fluids changed. Bike has a trailer hitch. Rear shocks were set on #5. Now on #2. Tire pressure is 40/40. Any way to tell if it has stiffer springs ?? Don't want to break down forks needlessly. Any help !!!!! Thanks......

Well, you could compare with someone who is totally stock up front. The distance of the exposed leg with be quite noticable on forks with stiffer springs....................as opposed to a short amount with the stockers.

....................this is with the bike sitting on its own weight.

Coyote, a member here has some great comparison pictures of the different springs, showing the installed difference of the leg extensions. I have not seen him post in quite awhile so...........................?
