No, its not going to be much of a difference. But we have one person here who said he tried it and it did make a noticable difference.

In any moment of decision the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.

Different compression load on each fork.............hardly likely unless your using a rubber axle shaft. Fork brace or not, there both tied together by the axle. Now individually aired and the difference between the two forks may cause the bike to handle a bit strange. No air involved, but for an example to prove a point the Honda ST and Wing have hydraulic dampening on the left fork ONLY which also cantains the anti-dive valve internally at the bottom of fork. Right and left fork both dampen on rebound. Imagine this off-sets the location of rear mono-shock which is located on the right-side swing-arm. Whoever may believe that a left or right load side affects air pressure between the forks definitely has another issue going on with the suspension or tires, or both period.81H Venturer1100 "The Bentley" (on steroids) 97 Yamaha YZ250(age reducer) 92 Honda ST1100 "Twisty"(touring rocket) Age is relative to the number of seconds counted 'airing' out an 85ft. table-top.Comment

There is a device on another bike like this an that is a yamaha venture royale, load leveling air system, but alot of people that have these like my self just do away with them and go to the progressive springs that work better in the first place, but if ya want more bells and bangs on your bike here ya go, just my two cents worth

It's not a big deal but if you lay down the bike the fork oil can flow from one fork to the other through the crossover line.
