2019 RAA West

Not at all, you were quite coherent
 

Don't worry, 7 weight will still be comfortable it just won't collapse as easily as before.

I'm using 10w and a shrunken air gap to ramp the rates quite high towards the end of the stroke and it's perfectly comfortable.

If it's too harsh Ill drop the front tyre pressure from 40 to 38 lbs. Most have advised for the 7 wt. oil so I bought that. Well see.

BTW Claviger; 63V in tps and 75V in the stepper, 620/610/610 on the bodies works very well on my 97 Classic. Idle is at 950, too high. How low can I go without risking lack of oil pressure at idle?
 
Replaced bearings and races awhile back. Proper tools a must have for that project. Stock yoke bearings were a joke. Packed new bearings with Lucas marine grade green lube. No issues since then and high speed wobble long gone. Progressive springs and makes for a smooth and stable ride. Your going to like it much better than what came stock with the bike. I have a brand new stepper motor in the shed. Maybe this winter will install but for now having the stepper motor disconnected but still wired is working out rather well. Idles great.

Might not win any popularity contest but i am still on for this run. Owe you a couple of beers of your choice Steve. Looking forward to meeting the ones i have not met yet and those that i have met looking forward to seeing again. Should be a solid run.
 
Been thinking about going with Progressive springs on the Roadster. Where is a good place to get them at a good price?
