I recently bought a set of Hyperpro fork springs from Number9 (thanks Jason!), and I'm curious if anyone else has these springs in their 1100, and if anyone still has their installation instructions. I want to make sure that I get things setup correctly when I install the springs because I don't want to tear the forks apart again for a while.
I did read that Hyperpro recommends 20wt fork oil. This seems REALLY thick compared to stock. Has anyone run thinner oil with Hyperpro springs? I'm afraid if I run the thick stuff that I'll wind up with an unpleasant ride. I live in South Dakota so I have to ride a long way to get to a road with curves. I don't want to beat myself to death before I get there.
Any info and advice provided will be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks,
Duke
