I replaced the forks oil and put .8kg/mm Sonic Springs and SSR preload adjusters. Or at least I'm in the middle of it. I will finish it tomorrow.

I'm surprised and worried that all that holds the springs in place are those little 'Snap Rings'. With the stock handle bars, the fork caps are covered, so if the snap rings fail and the spring comes out, it'll be contained by the handlebar cover. But with clip-on's bars, if the Snap Ring fails, it looks like the fork caps will come right at the rider with a dangerous force. Am I missing something?
