Went to the SE heavy oil in the forks and it seems REAL nice...
I'll know more after some more spirited riding.
I did notice today that the jolt didn't follow the cringe like it used to.

I can't believe you started an oil thread.

I found a marked improvement in jounce damping with the SE heavy.
Not as much as I'd like, but improved.

I tried the SE heavy and wasn't really satisfied, I then went with a 50-50 mix of SE heavy and DRAG 20wt fork oil, much better. Really tightened up the front end. Next time I'll go with 100% Drag 20wt.

Does a stiffer front end feel smoother or no? I ask because I get vibes in the front at 80 mph.

A (former) friend of mine asked if he should marry the girl he knocked up (also the only one he had ever slept with). We were just out of high school (where they called her Carp Face) at the time, but I still stand by my answer.
I told him if the first car he drove was a Volkswagen, and he never drove anything else, he'd probably be perfectly happy with the Volkswagen. But if he got behind the wheel of a Trans Am or a 'Vette, the Volkswagen might not look so good any more. We don't talk much now, and they've been married longer than me and Boop.

That doesn't make what I said any less true, though
