Be interested to see what others say too, but I always thought Silkoline 20w was decent fork oil. I suppose it depends totally on your own weight, riding style etc etc.
I tend to slightly overfill my forks, and use upgraded springs 'cause I'm not exactly a 7 stone weakling :oooops:

As for headrace, Not had to do my XB yet (only done 6K since I got it, last replaced at 10K), but patience and a decent drift/puller will see you alright :)
