    Change fork oil once per year.
    With these old damper rod type forks I can't imagine using over 15 wt oil. High speed compression would be about solid, hydro-lock. If you want a stiffer ride get higher rate springs.
    Sorry about misspelling the word "inherent" on that last post.

      Thats kinda what I thought. It just goes to show you how dumb some POs can be. I have some 10wt that was reccomended by a good mechanic and I have found that to be ok.

        That would be good in cold weather.
