Digging into the CC Sachs

UPDATE:

Took the 300RR out today after changing the oil on the forks and the difference is VERY noticeable. They improved way more than I thought they would and honestly, I wouldn't change anything on the forks right now. I'm sure I'll want to fiddle with them some more after more time on them. I went in one click on compression, and slowed down the rebound 3 clicks and the forks feel awesome. Highly recommended for folks with these forks to change the oil first and then decide if they still need a re-valve.

I'm very happy with how the forks feel after this simple fix.

Great news lots seam to be happy with this. Did you map the std shim stacks ?

I did not lay out the shim stacks since I didn't even disassemble them, just oil was changed. I'll do this for next fluid change.

Do I remove them, lay them out in order and measure with a micrometer?

I always wonder why the manufactures don't publish this information. Be a simple thing that is very helpful to many of their customers. Eventually the information does get out so It is not like it is proprietary. To me it is a great opportunity to improve customer service.

Funny thing is that from the factory the forks have that Tellus 32 syrup in them but in the manual for these forks they say "fill with good quality 5W oil".
Strange....

Obviously Obvious. Leaving the factory with the wrong fork oil.

There are a couple reasons not to, the most pressing being that if you screw up your suspension there can be real world, harmful consequences when it all comes apart.

I see your point Steve but we all know the real reason is control.
