Hi all,

I just bought a 96 Seca II, and I want to do some upgrades. Looking through previous posts, I found some very helpful information regarding upgrading shocks. I followed the links to RT's website and found the progressive springs. However, I'm not sure which spring rate to choose. During the week, I will be using the bike to commute to work, and the .80kg/mm are recommended. But on the weekends I take my wife for bike tours and with our combined weight RT recommends .95kg/mm. Should I go stiffer, or stay in the middle? I dont want the bike getting twitchy on the highway or make my ride to rough.

thanks
