Simple fork mods - Mike Bee_imp - 08-12-2013

Just want to solicit some opinions on improving fork performance. Has anyone taken a look at their fork springs? Are they straight wound? I suppose replacing them with a progressively wound spring and maybe using a slightly heavier fork oil might improve the dampening and the ride. I wonder if anyone is making progressive springs made state side for the CB1100.
