Replaced the stock s2r 800 springs with Ohlins.  Also changed to 10wt fork oil.
When I was pumping the piston to get all remaining oil out of the fork, it was free moving on one leg but the other leg took some effort to pump the rod.  The only thing I could think of was an older post where once leg is used for compression and the other is used for rebound.  Any thoughts?
The springs made a world of difference, but I want to make sure everything is ok...

I believe you hit the nail on the head.
