Subject:will new spring stop excessive leaning in turns.
From:Spencer Allen <soxndubs1951@GMAIL.COM>

My 85 Westy leans pretty far when entering on ramps or making a turn under
power (not from a stop). It has the original springs and bushings. I
replaced the shocks with Sachs OE ride quality some time back..Has any
listmember here replaced their springs lately with a stock ride type? Some
of the online vendors say their OE type springs are a "little" stiffer than
stock. What  has been your ride experience with your new sprigs? Thanks all.
