I know that stiction can happen normaly on forks, varing with the fork & seal condition but is stiction possable due to the rebound stacks not being very sensitive to oil flow?

I am only saying because i was noticing quite a bit of stiction on my forks yesterday, i decided to play a bit and found that just backing the rebound out by 1/4 made the forks return on rebound easier. I would say that the diffrence was probably 1-2cm of fork travel when forks compressed and then released.

Is this the noted rubish stacks that suzuki fitted to srad forks not reacting very well?
