I see my Traxxion Dynamics fork springs are 1.0 kg/mm with 120mm spacers. Traxxion Dynamics included the aluminum spacers.

I see some forum references that the early V11 Sport 40 mm Marzocchi were fitted with 0.65 kg/mm springs. I am not sure what the spring rate might have been on the 2003 LeMans.  :huh2:

Got her back yesterday - definitely feels more compliant and supple with the Belray 5w High Performance fork oil. Adjusted the compression and rebound a just half-turn stiffer to compensate for the new oil, and seems very good for now.  Kept the stock Marzocchi springs, and still seems fine for my 190lbs.  I set up the sag and pre-load 5 years ago when i got the bike and have not changed it. Thanks for all the help and input everyone.

Incidentally, had a great time talking with Roland at The Spare Parts Co in Philly about everything Guzzi. They've been open since '81, and knew Dr. John Wittner well.
