2 shocks 5 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
I bought a shock w/ a spring,online. The spring on my bike is yellow. Do all R*s come with yellow springs?

Re:2 shocks 5 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
Hmmm...the stock I took off had the black spring, the Eibach 1000 lb I put on is yellow...are there any stampings on the yellow one? It's been a LONG time, and I'm going from memory here, but I think it had something like "EI 970" on it, I'm guessing that's 970 lbs.

Pretty sure the Barons spring is or was yellow. It's definately not the stock spring

The yellow one is definitely aftermarket but the black could be. My Progressive is black just like the stock one.
