Default TRF Springs

Does anyone know what the spring rates are for the 201 front and rear?



The front spring kit says:
Hard (green), medium (black), and soft (brown)springs included.

But cant find any info on the rear spring sets.

I think it's the same of (+/-) AE.... and the 501 front spring (red-yellow-blue) are more hard.

Cool,

so the new brown, black and green ones are even softer than 501 front springs (red, yellow & blue).

Thanks
