So I don't think my fork harshness is due to the forks being worn. Any other useful tips or things to change. I've had them apart a few times now so don't mind getting into the valving but I'm a newbie and don't even know what to change. I've been reading/researching a lot, but would still need some pointers.
It sounds like they are riding too much in the mid-stroke (from your initial post). So two observations:
1. You haven't mentioned whether you have them sprung correctly for your weight
2. If they are sprung correctly I would try more compression dampening to keep the forks up in the stroke.
