I looked on GPR's website and looking at your damper, it looks the same as mine but their documentation states that they use 5wt silkolene fork oil in theirs and now you are stating that you have put 20wt fork oil in, am I missing something? I want to give it another go but need a bit of clarity.
Just to make sure I wasnt one of just a few, did you also experience somewhat like I described with the GPR with the original wt fork oil?

I did have the same problem as yours i.e. weaving, unstable, tracking etc. I called GPR twice and was told that i probably installed the damper incorrectly. After a few try with no difference in result, I demanded that they replace the oil with a lighter one.
I believe the GPR damper came with a 40w fork oil? I might be wrong but when I sent them my damper, I specifically asked them to replace the oil with 20W. Im not sure if they did in fact replaced it with a 20w but it made a substantial difference.
im on setting 1.5 to 2. on the street and also cured the problem the same as yours.
