Thanks for posting the vid on this. I have been looking to put a different spring on the V Strom as well but with over 50,000 kms I am wondering if I should just be replacing the shock completely. They are awful pricey though.

If I go with a replacement it will be a rebuild by Sasquatch for less than half the price of those Elka's
