Another update:

This past week I tore apart the suspension and found the cause of the issue:

The rebound dampening was not set correctly in the forks after trackside assembly. This means I pretty much had none activated due to operator error and not understanding how the adjustments are made. FYI BIR is very scary without suspension. I've fixed that by tearing it all apart, validating everything functions, and reassembling back to spec (with proper weight springs in the front).
