They are brand new mate
If u look hard enought there is a little gap between the bottom leaf and the middle leaf
It looks like the secound leaf should be longer So the spring stops it from going flat at the end

Top leaf looks bent as if it folding over the end of the second leaf.
Third leaf looks like it had an uneven curve to it as if it has been bent out of shape.

And hope and prey he doesn't realise you have been using it off road as it may invalidate the warranty. Sounds daft but a lot of spring manufacturers don't cover off road / laning use.suzukisteve wrote:well dude seein as they are new I know what I'd do. send em back under warranty

Yes know i see, that leaf is not short though IMO, but if they are brand new there is a fault, as aid the top leaf has a bend in it, are the other the same, as in the looks.
Have you used them off road yet, seriously off road i mean in anger
