Edited Date/Time 12/13/2019 6:47am
Hi guys,

I'm looking for a Kayaba factory spring with chromated blue color (picture below) in 50 Nm or 52 Nm.

Technical Touch Belgium is out of stock on these spring rates with this blue color, do you have any idea where i can find them ? Europe or USA no matters (even second hand)

Many thanks for your help, i want that factory look so bad :D

You can get springs powder coated like that. As a matter of fact cameron niemela made a red one for his cr250 build.

Try to look around dealers around Europe if someone would happen to have one in stock. If not, try Enzo in USA and dealers in USA.

Try Technical Touch in the US. I don't know if they normally stock them, but it's the first place I'd look. 909-949-4155

Actually Premix is right... although a candy powdercoat looks very nice, it’s just NOT the same.
The Pregio springs scream “FACTORY”.
I had one on one of my bikes. Lucky enough I acquired it on a bike I bought.

I know hes right. Those coatings look good. Not $300+ cool but definitely cool.
