Fork me? Fork you! you motherForking forkbag

35mm forks from a cb550(?)
cleaned and re assembled,
10wt (which I used because I tried 20wt in my street bike and it turned into a pogo stick)
1/2" spacer (which was hard to add)

My thinking was to try different stock springs, I have a few more forks kicking around from 650, 750, 450. The thing is that they are all different lengths.

I have heard of people cutting down the springs and adding spacers...

Thanks for all the replies! Basically my feeling is that there is too much rebound damping. Compression is fine she just springs back SLOW.

JB, of course you are right, who's to know what it will do unless in a track situation. Honestly the ONLY thing I noticed about the fork AT ALL was that it came back slowly out of the bowl...

FR, good idea. I'll check for stiction and/ or binding as you said

Ratty, thanks for the link! My next step will be to measure the other springs on a scale and compare.

Thanks guys, now that I'm armed with more info I should be able to sort it out.
