How much do you weigh?

Many of us have upgraded the front springs and fork oil. A higher rated spring will support more weight and reduce dive. Getting thicker fork oil will improve compression and rebound.

As already mentioned, first try the rear preload and hope it gets better (at least for now).

Increase the rear preload for sure -- if you haven't already done so.

Fork oil is pretty cheap -- check with your local dealer. It's just a little work intensive (time wise) -- not really that hard. You just need to get the front end off the ground.

Leaning back a little on hard braking can help reduce front end dive.
