I bought a used 2003 750 2 years ago with 8800 miles. I've put on 4000 and the bike runs great, as far as I know, with no fork problems.
Should I be worried about the age of the fork oil with so few miles but 11 or more years on it?
If a knowledgeable source here tells me it is highly advisable to change the oil because it breaks down over time regardless of the mileage then I will. If I decide to upgrade the fork springs to Race Tech, for example, would it be a poor choice to only upgrade the springs without additional internal parts changed like valve kits or emulators?
Do better springs with quality oil make an appreciable difference that makes changing them worthwhile if you don't change the other parts? Rather not spend a ton of money if changing the springs alone is a big improvement.
