Thanks mine are 465mm they have them for sale on zpower website and they are 525 long would they fit or would you need to cut them down my fork legs are a lot shorter on my z1000 there is at about 50mm difference between my z900 and the z1000 from the bottom of the yoke to the top of the fork rubber dust cover that's why I measure my fork springs why is this ?
