Adding a suspension fork also slows the steering. I did this on a ‘90 steel Fuji, the front geometry was not designed for the fork, which raises the fork crown as part of the suspension. The bike got slower thru turns. Then the fork I added started to leak fluids and there were no seals around to get this fixed.
