Used spacers in my H2 forks. About 12mm. Helped.
New springs no doubt best route.

12mm spacers on top of the springs? Are new springs still available?

Spacers on top of the springs were a common mod in proddy racing in the days of the RD350/400/350LC to stiffen the front forks up.
Ive heard of coins being used too to increase the thickness of the spacer a bit at time. Thumbs Up
