I did get out to check out the new fork oil on a long ride today, about 260 miles down to Palomar and Julian.
The ride on the 91 and I-15 were improved to the point of feeling like I had gotten new forks, that actually moved and would glide over little bits of raised pavement instead of launching the whole bike up and slamming your teeth together. They won't quite smooth out the California Whoops, but nothing else will in this size range either. The groove weave is still about the same, but I blame that more on the road, than the forks. Handling in the twisties is still superb, and I didn't notice any alarming brake dive. The forks don't appear to be sticking anymore, either.
All-in-all, an extreme improvement in the bike without much cost or hassle. I wish I had done it right after I got the bike. I would surely highly recommend anyone who hasn't changed their fork oil to do it as soon as possible and enjoy the bike as it should be enjoyed. In comfort!
I used 200 ml of Maxima 10wt fork oil in each leg. More riding will indicate whether there is any fine tuning needed, but right now I'm happy as a frog on a lily pad!
Now, all I have to do is fine tune the bike to some new boots I just got!
