[QUOTE="2strokerfun, post: 1207057, member: 69719"] Yes. A few weeks back, I was experimenting with different weight fork oils and amounts and shims to get my 31-year-old forks "just right." Well, I was still in the middle of experimenting when I had to stop. At that time I had just put 20-weight oil (the ATF originally used in forks is about 10 weight or so) and overfilled by one ounce per fork--it was my maximum stiff setting I was going to experiment with before re-adjusting it back down to where it ought to be. So my son-in law stops by a few days later with his bike and wants to ride, and I forgot I had left the 20 wgt in my forks. OMG!!!!!! After about 15 minutes my hands/arms felt like someone had been hitting them with sledge hammers. My suspension was set too stiff for riding on glass, and we were riding in and out of rutty and steep stream beds. [/QUOTE]
