Hey IndianRider, you and I are similar weights and I share your views about the suspension feeling better when the preload is reduced with faster dampening settings. Observations are that it's more 'planted' and less affected by rough surfaces when cornering at 'sane' speeds. Downside is that ground clearance is compromised and can drag few bits from time to time. I think Tink summed it rather well. If more spirited / track riding is the main purpose I would definitely want to explore springs and revalving.
