little bumps, losing grip in corner.

Hello,

I bought my XTX in may 2013 (my first bike). One of the first mods i dit whas the Kev spacers in the front shocks. I good improvement for the handling.


I did a lot of riding and i improved my riding skills. (I did a supermotard course).
I drive faster through the corners and have more lean angle. I notice that on a corners with a couple off little bumps the bike seems lozing grip on the front wheel. (rinding above 60km/h) It feels if the bike is bouning on the front wheel (it's not really bouncing but it feels like it). Does someone recognized this behavior ?

I was thinking the stock spring with the preload (kev spacers) can't handle the little bumps.
Would replacing the frontsprings with Hyperpro or Wilberd do the trick?
Any advice is appreciated
