Mine are standard apart from lighter fork oil, I have 7.5 weight instead of 10 weight fork oil I cant remeber the height but I think it was the standard recomended height.
Forks are 5mm through the yolks* (measured from top of yolk to top of fork cap)
I know a lot of people go for a revalve because the rvf is a heavier bike, but the percieved wisdom is that the grey import bikes are a bit undersprung for most westerners anyway. I guessed the increase in rider weight would balance out the decrease in bike weight, I weigh 12 stone........honest Shocked
To be fair its still a little on the firm side and my front suspension data logger (okay its a cable tie) tells me I'm not using the full travel but its not far off.

*triple clamps to you chaps in the colonies!
