I maintained the standard forks and used 10w oil and Wilber progressive springs.
The reason I fitted Wilber progressive springs in the end was simply because I do a lot of 2 up riding and travel on very undulating roads (as Skippernick discovered :lol ).
I have no idea how to set up suspension. Fortunately, I got lucky with the purchase and fitting (by Devilsyam) of a set of R1 forks that had already been treated by K-Tech. I haven't the first idea what they did, but it all seems perfect to me
I hope this helps :lol
