After reading Gustavo's thread on the fork oil change, it seemed a worthwhile endeavor, but I realized I was too lazy to make the tool, and didn't have one to compress the spring and remove it. You can do it w/2 people, but it won't be fun.
I found a glass bottle (olives) about the same diameter as the fork, holding 450ml, and decided to cheat. I had a litre of 7w belray fork oil, and proceeded to drain the oil out of both legs, marking the oil height on the bottle before dumping it in the waste container. I then refilled the bottle with the 7w, minus 1/2" and refilled the fork legs using a piece of plastic milk carton as a funnel. No, I won't win any accuracy awards, but I'm cool with that.
I kept the settings the same and went out to a stutterbump filled backroad. Noticeable improvement...softened the feedback on the bars, and felt more planted, in the front. Of course, it made the back seem a proportional amount crappier.
I can see why Ted and others recommend you don't do one end w/o the other..it's probably because you'll hate the rear end even more when you get the front a bit more dialed in.

excuse my ignorance Tomla, but do you mean you were somehow able to do this without taking the forks off the bike?

I'm lazy, but not that lazy. i suppose you could do a super quickie job by using a skinny piece of tubing on a turkey baster to suck the oil out, but really, it's not that hard to pull the fork tubes. Total time was about an hour for the job.
I was basically trying to see if there was any improvement with an oil weight change and slightly reducing the oil level. Now that I know there is, I'll probably make/buy the tool and do it the right way in a few months, further dropping the oil level a bit, too. Then again, maybe I better have a shock lined up before I do that.....
