Has anyone modified their front suspension via different oil viscosity, different springs?

I find my 2018 CTX700 to be quite harsh riding over bumps. I have an adjustable rear shock but I’m wondering if anyone has done anything to the front forks to soften the ride?? Different oil viscosity, different springs?? Etc.??

With a bit of search, you will find where I replaced front shocks with Race Tech Gold Valves and rear shocks with Ohlins with hydraulic preset. With the suspension upgrade and a Seth Laam seat I could ride comfortably 700-800 miles per day. Actually, I did not do the work. I paid Pro Care in Fairmount, GA.
