[QUOTE="MCRIDER007, post: 1314641, member: 329"] Installing 1.0 springs with the factory valving is going to result in a harsher ride over bumps or rough surfaces but using 10W fork oil is only going to make the problem worse. The biggest drawback with the OEM valving is that the high speed compression circuit does not flow enough oil and 10W oil is twice as thick as the OEM oil even though Yamaha sometimes incorrectly refers to that oil as 10W.
