This listing is for a Honda Talon 1000R Dual Rate Spring Kit. This setup will fit both Fox QS3 shocks and Live Valve Shocks on this model.
Our spring kits feature top of the line Swift brand springs which replace the low quality / saggy / poor riding OEM springs. We re-use the Talon sliders on this model as from the Factory they utilize a high quality Fox slider that has very tight tolarnces compared to other models that use low quality sloppy sliders. We also will reuse the OEM billet crossover rings in this kit.

With our dual rate spring kit you can expect to:
  1. Regain lost ride height.
  2. Receive a truly plush ride eliminating most of the trail chatter feedback you get from embedded rocks, ruts, tree roots, tire tracks, etc. with the lighter initial spring rate of both springs active.
  3. Superior bottoming resistance when the spring separator contacts the crossover collars and engages the heavier main spring solely for the remainder of the shock stroke.

The beauty of this kit is that it is truly adjustable! The threaded crossover collars can be infinitely adjusted "up" or "down" on the shock body thread, to set the point in the stroke where the spring separator contacts the cross-over collars and engages the heavier main spring solely for the remainder of the shock stroke. Installation only requires basic tools and 3-4 hours time. Our dual rate spring kits come with a detailed and complete, step-by-step installation instruction sheet with settings, diagrams, and photos. With our setups, ride height is based off of a setup that gives your vehicle a 30% ride sag. With that being said we target 70% of the shock stroke exposed at ride height. This targeted shaft exposed at ride height number will let you know if you need to increase or decrease preload to get your vehicles setup dialed specifically to your needs.

  • (2) Front Tender Springs
  • (2) Front Main Springs
  • (2) Rear Tender Springs

Schmidty Racing Suspension really are the best there is available. I did my research on other brands and it was clear what was best. I opted for the firm kit as I was loading up my machine with storage, winch etc.
I installed the springs as instructed, I was absolutely blown away with the ride improvement! Its like a totally different machine now. The ride is still firm in the corners and plush at the same time. I don't know how they managed it but they really dialed these springs in. I would highly recommend these springs as the first mod needed to your Honda Talon 1000r.
