Product information

Bitubo Linear Spring Kit K=1.00 + 1 Lt. Oil
code MY83 is specifically designed to fit inside the original fork of the Yamaha MT-09 (models from 2021 onwards).
The kit is a plug-and-play replacement that replaces the original springs and stock oil, improving the dynamic behavior of the bike without requiring structural modifications to the fork tubes or legs. Installation is a maintenance/upgrade operation that maintains the original hydraulics, optimizing the mechanical response of the suspension.

The spring constant (K) indicates how much force is required to compress the spring by a given unit of length.

Here is a detailed explanation of the differences:

1. Stiffness (Spring Constant K)
K=1.00 (Stiffer): Requires more force to compress than K=0.80. The fork will be more supportive overall and less likely to sag quickly.
K=0.80 (Less Stiff/Softer): Requires less force to compress. The fork will feel softer throughout its travel.

2. Riding Behavior
The choice between the two will depend primarily on the rider's weight (with equipment), riding style, and the type of motorcycle:

K=1.00 Springs (Stiffer):
Ideal for: Heavier riders, very sporty/aggressive riding, frequent track use, or when frequently traveling with a passenger and heavy luggage.
Advantages: Greater braking stability, less "sway" at high speeds, greater steering precision.
Disadvantages: On very rough roads, they may feel too stiff and transmit more bumps to the rider, slightly reducing comfort.
K=0.80 Springs (Less Stiff/Softer):
Ideal for: Lighter riders, touring/relaxed riding, primarily used on urban or rough roads.
Advantages: Greater comfort over potholes and bumps, softer forks on initial impact with obstacles.
Disadvantages: May be too compliant under hard braking or in sporty riding conditions, causing excessive bottoming out.

In Summary
K=1.00
Stiffness: Higher (Stiff)
Ideal Rider: Heavy
Ideal Riding Style: Sporty, Track
Bottoming: Less when braking

K=0.80
Stiffness: Lower (Soft)
Ideal Rider: Lightweight
Ideal Riding Style: Touring, Comfort
Bottoming: Greater when braking

It is essential to choose the correct spring rate based on the rider's weight to ensure the suspension operates within the correct range (static and dynamic sag) and offers maximum performance.
