I've only got like 7 years of professional racing experience at the national and world levels so I may not know what I'm talking about

But really some Superbike have only compression valves in the left and rebound valves in the right. That is why we have upper AND lower triple clamps, they keep everything inline. Given a 250 doesn't have the same level of bracing as a 1000ss it is still stiff enough to handle a difference in springs of at least .15
