    Hi guys has anyone tried this spring or spoke to the company about it?
    Bmw dealer said can only be done at factory when ordering new bike
    But this company hyper pro says for esa bikes only
    Be great to know
    Cheers in advance 👍

    Hi did you get anywhere with the lowering spring? I'm thinking of it as an option to lower the bike and keep ESA.
    Thanks!

    Hi, recently fitted the Hypro lowering kit non ESA.
    Apart from being able now to get both feet on the ground feels much better sprung comfort wise with the progressive springs.
    Fitted myself with only two rear spring compressors additional to a standard tool kit.
    Hyperpro list special tooling for the front forks to remove the springs but managed without.
    Left fork is a different set up to the right and found the most difficult as you have to compress spring to access circlip for removal. I compressed it and lodged it under my workbench to give access to circlip for removal (fortunately bench was perfect height)
    Hyperpro supply instructions which you can also access from their online site.
    Further note to remove top suspension caps loosen top yoke clamping screws and handle bars to access leave bottom yoke clamped otherwise you will struggle with caps.
    If your not mechanically minded then get someone who can help or get it done professionally.
    Also the standard sidestand is now perfect!
    Hope this gives some help and insight.
