I just bought a new 2005 Z1 FR I ETA for my Heckler. I have done nothing to the fork except but it on the bike and go for a ride. I was under the impression that the stock springs would be very plush for my weight(195 pounds). However the fork is really stiff, not plush at all. On my first ride I barely used half of the forks travel (this is a 150 mm fork).
Is this normal for the fork to be this stiff at first and then it will get broken in and plusher or is there something else I needed to do to this fork before riding it?
