On ThumperTalk they had a write up and it listed the new 450R (and RX I guess) as having coil springs.  Is that correct?

First mod i would be doing is getting rid of them silly heavy , more to damage dual muffler system , at least they listen about the forks and went back to spring , there a good chance kawi will do the same on there 450 for 18 , 8 pounds extra with e-start a fair bit of fat to carry around extra .
