Does anyone have the minimum service length of the 2 springs in the front fork for a 1982 CB 450 SC ?

I have checked the below, but cant find the data.
-the Clymer manual
-the workshop manual downloaded from this site.
-this forum.

Normal Service Limit
Spring A 237.4 MM (9.35 in) 232 MM (9.13 in)
Spring B 362.4 MM (14.27 in) 355 MM (14.00 in)

These are the specs for the CM450C but I cross referenced the part to the CB450SC and they part numbers are the same.

thanks
but ...hmm, my springs are not 100% within service limits. length is approx 100mm and 500mm
I must see how the bike feels like, after the winter

The specs for the SC are found in the 1986 manual, a bit confusing.
Short spring is 235-240 Long is 335-342
