Re: New Springs - Racing BEAT
Just had this message through, they are doing this last Order for a while, so must action tonight:-
Good evening Pete
Many thanks for mail and maybe the other orders..
We closed our order off last night and told them that it was closed so we didn’t mess them about as they are short on staff!
“If” the other guys put their orders through the shop tonight, with all three I will try and add these to be sent as a separate shipment on top of this one.
Obviously ETA’s are difficult during this difficult time.
Use the link below to place order

Once again, thank you and stay safe.

Re: New Springs - Racing BEAT
Needless to say there has been a bit of a delay in shipping but they hope they will arrive in UK at end of the week
.
I will keep you informed when I know more.

Thnx for the update Pete. I thought they'd be months away so this is a nice surprise.

I have done exactly none of the aboveI'm going to replace the rear springs first as that's an easier job and also where I need to find more suspension travel. The aftermarket springs I'm running are too low at the rear and allow pretty much zero shock travel which is fantastically unsettling when cornering on a less than compliant surface.

Re: New Springs - Racing BEAT
Just got an email to say my springs will be dispatched on the 23rd.
I wonder how many years I will have them before fitting .... only joking ...
