Any chance you've changed the pads and they're hitting an unworn pat of the discs because the pads a a fraction bigger?

Brakes are just fine. I think the 20W oil and very small rebound hole caused the Emulator to pop open until pressure was released and this process repeated itself..........

Longest modern USD forks are Kawasaki at 754mm as used on ER6 race conversions....With Nissan Radial brakes....yummy.....maybe in the future when i put the bike back on the road.

20 weight with emulators

bit overboard as most are designed to work with a 5 weight as std.

Yip...tried to get slow rebound and a firm front set-up...but as you said....just too much.
Rule is, if there is any modern valving, then you should stick to 2.5 weight....older forks 5W is OK, max 10W
You can run 20W on basic forks of old race bike, if you only change the spring and dont mod anything else.

any chance the track is just undulating in the braking areas?
