Questions about some stuff?

I just ordered some more stuff for my bike yesterday.

Sport Touring Windscreen from Zero Gravity
SW MOTEC handlebar risers
Progressive front springs
SV650 rear shock

I'm 6'1" and 225#. Do you guys think I should go with 15W fork oil with the Progressives? I notice some of you guys list thicker oil in you signatures.

Anyone else have the ZG Sport Touring Windscreen? How do you like it? I suppose it's a little too late for me to ask, seeing I already ordered it, but I'd still like to get some feedback about them.

Thanks!

I am 200# you may wanna go with 20w to slow the forks compression.No experience with the ZG windscreens.I hear from here and other forums that they're worth the $$$.
PICS are GONE never TO return.

Thanks Ben2go,

Whatever is in it now is NOT ENOUGH!

What little suspension I have up front bottoms at the least transition from pavement to parking lot! Very unsafe too when one needs to really get on the front brake!

I believe factory oil is 7w or 10w.15w was a little light for me but ok 20w maybe a little better for 200# +.I had Progressives also.I now have a Katana 750 front end that's had some work done to it and accessorized.
