Can't say I'm a balls out rider, but I do "ride" my bike and know that I need a different set up with my fork springs, the stock ones are too soggy.
Agreed on the valving, but I won't be re-valving my forks yet and as you say, the progressive springs make up for the inefficiency to some degree. Also given that I'll be keeping the standard shock, I would have thought the bike would feel more balanced with a set of progressive springs over linear ones of a higher spring rate?
