As an alternative, I'll soon be selling a pair of new Racetech compression valves (somehow I ordered two sets from the States by mistake). You essentially bypass the fork leg's external screw setup as you tailor the internal valve shimstack to your own weight (comes with a Racetech access code). They cost me about £180 inc import tax but could let them go to a fellow f0ccer for a bit less. Obviously tracking down a trashed pair of forks would be a cheaper, but you're stuck with the mediocre damping.
My own forks have these fitted, as well RaceTech's rebound valves: haven't felt the need to adjust anything yet and I'm probably a bit fussy when it comes to suspension

& here (for FJR1300) which shares the exact same valves: http://www.fjrforum.com/forum/index.php?...pic=127506
