Why not try it? if you like the effect then thats good enough.

I dropped the forks throught the yokes and softened the pre load. It felt better to me, i.e. I felt more confident/comfortable with the bike.

It's a rider preference thing, what is better/faster for one rider might not work for another. A very significant part of riding a bike is confidence, if you make a change that thoery says makes the bike go slower if it makes you more confident you may well go faster or feel more comfortable at the same speed.

In racing this happens time and time again. A new mod or new bike comes along, that is miles faster for some riders, whereas another just doesn't get on with it. They then jump on the old/unmoded bike and go faster than the new improved version.
