Fork lowers have to stay stock, I think you can have different caps so you can change to AK20s or emulators. Or just some proper springs and oil.

Or for cheap you can fit CBR fork stanchion and internals, not sure if this is minitwin legal though.

most people start with 9.0 spring weight, unless you have a tad more kg's like me i run 9.0/9.5
but i think you will find it very spongy on the compression stroke unless you put 30w+ oil in, we find welding up the damper rod holes and re-drilling with 20w oil much, much more fun.
