Looking at some of the 90's spring rates for the 125, something stood out as unusual.

1992 CR125 4.8
1995 CR125 5.4
1997 CR125 4.9

(I have the 95 cr125, but Im wondering what the big jump in rate to 5.4 was all about? )

As I recall they changed the linkage and thus the spring rate had to change.

Looks like the dog bone part numbers are same 95-97. Must have been some changes to the "arm" location of lower shock mount.
