Any one more that feels that the fork is way to soft.. if i brake in to a stoppie first 70% of the fork goes down as i look on the brake lever.. then it´s ok but it goes way to long down before it stiffens,. and another thing when going on the backwheel, if i am just a little little uncareful when putting it down it klonks and goes bottom. third problem since it is a fighter bike i like to drive on the sidewalks and scare vespas and mopeds and with i small wheelie going back to the road even this little little "jump" makes my fork go bottom.. I´m going to the dealer for the first service and wonder if i have to tell them to put hevier oil and even springs in there?? any one know anything about this?? When on the road crusing i love the suspension.

My 09 Firebolt is the same.Im going to start ajusting them to see what that does but Im with you on possibly heavier oil.
 
I´ve tried to harden it by adjusting the compression on the bottom screws but it is not what i want.. it helps a little but.. i don´t like to have any adjustables at their total max or total min in anything.. it´s the same with the stereo at home it is not a good thing to increase volume to it´s absolute maximum... However thats what i think
