what springs on the valve light / blue - or the heavy yellow ?ok, i got the gold valves installed. I am very happy with the control the forks have now. At first i set them up for "race" with 4 turns in. After riding it that way for a few hours i went back and turned them down to 2 1/2 turns. I'm keeping the 2 1/2 turn adjustment. The forks are much better controlled. They keep the tire in contact with the asphalt, going over small irregularities better then stock, and the dampening is working as advertised. No wallowing, and a smoother ride. Do the forks bottom? I don't think so, if they are, they are hitting bottom gently. They do react to bumps in a corner much better then stock, following the road surface and keeping traction on the front end much better. As stuna commented earlier, the faults in the rear shock are more apparent now. I am beginning to feel more comfortable with the bike leaned over. I think my chicken strips are doomed.
