Amazing timing!! I actually dropped into their office in Albury on Thursday and had a chat about my bandit forks, the result is no they don't have the 1250 listed and would probably be expensive as they would probably have to custom make them.  I have not yet worked out if they have them listed for another bike that actually has the same springs, they suggested I bring in a spring and they will measure it up and try to find an off the shelf solution.
Note: they make progressively wound springs and tell me they are about 25% stiffer than stock, you don't seem to be able to specify a certain spring weight like you can with Race Tech linear springs, this limitation will send me to race tech as I am something of a heavyweight myself.

If you ride a 1200 then use the Ikon # 500-051

Give them a call; Proven Products P/L

The shock must be the same as another bike, any idea what?
