Does anybody know if coupe springs will fit a tourer (-85mm) :?

They will fit mate.

Due to the extra weight over the back though, it will sit even lower.

At 85mm, it will be on the bumpstops on a touring I would think.

Silly low that is! :twisted:

The dampers won't affect the ride height. I had about an 80mm drop at the back once, and it was awful! Honestly!! :)

40mm, or if you want even lower, 60mm all round is fine. Will probably still scrape on bits and bobs though.
