XV1600 Valve Springs for sale? 2 Months, 1 Week ago  
Before the RSC disappears forever, I'm wondering if anyone has a set of XV1600 valve springs - Heavy Duty or Orient Express or PR - they'd like to sell me?

If not, does anyone know of a vendor still selling them, other than PR.

And, can XV1700 valve springs be substituted for XV1600 springs? Are they stiffer?

Thanks

I think I have a oem set from my 1700 as far as I know they will fit a 1600 and are a little stronger than oem 1600 springs. If you aren't interested in mine I bought my HD springs from Orient Express for under $100. I just looked them up and they are $62 at orient express.

They're out of stock on 1600 and 1700 spring sets - just checked again. PM me with a price on your springs please
