Hi guys was wondering if someone can tell me what the marks on my kx 5 fork springs mean.
i have three straight lines on one side and one straight line directly opposite, all marks are on the top of the spring, thanks in advance for any info,  tricky.

 This is all I can find for now, 
"If they are the stock springs they will just have a couple lines on the end, looks like II (.27) or III for the heavier springs. Most aftermarket will be marked with the actual spring rate."

If you have a shop nearby they should probably have a spring tester and tell you exactly what you have.
I'll stop back later, & let you know what else I can find.
