All, I recently learned that the stock fork springs of the Stelvio are a .86KG spring rate, which is certainly on the soft side for the "average" rider. I'll be digging further into the valving in a few weeks with Marzocchi USA.
I have access to Marzocchi 1.0KG springs, and soon will have access to 1.05KG, which I think will be very beneficial to the majority of riders, especially those who wander off paved tarmac.

Contact me direct for more info/pricing, etc.
 
I would love a pair of progressively wound springs for my Stelvio as the front is way too soft! Let me know when you get info on them, I'm in!
 
I have three pair of the 1.05 Marzocchi springs in stock, and these will be the last of them until the end of the year. If you're even thinking about a set, contact me ASAP; Todd at GuzziTech.com
 
Interesting info re .86 kg. Any idea what the norge springs are?. I had an 8kg on the rear when new, then a ten, still too soft so I had an 11kg made and it was too hard on minimum preload unless riding twisties or pillioning. Only 1 kg different.
Cheers from Tasmania

The Norge is also .86KG.

I'm down to two pair left for the '09-11 Stelvio. These will not fit the '12 Stelvio 45mm USD Marzocchi forks.

Just wanted to check on this, do you have or are there any plans for more springs in the future?
 
I got a pair of springs made for mine recently (2009).

I stripped the Forks to get the stanchions re-chromed.
Didn't want to be without the Bike while they were being done, so I fitted a set of 2010 Multi-Strada Forks.

I used the Stelvio springs in those, as the Ducati ones are way too 'soft' for the Stelvio.
I'll probably keep the Ducati Forks on it now, so I needed a set of Springs for rebuilding the originals, in case I decide to sell them.

Got them from a Company here (UK) called Davies Springs Ltd, in Redditch.

I contacted a few firms, they were the only ones of those that replied that could do it, the others didn't have the correct Wire (or quoted a ridiculous price).

Cost me £167, a bit more than I'd have liked, but given the rarity (unobtanium) of the originals, and the value of a 'good-as-new' set of early forks, it's not horrendous I guess.
