Thanks, John. This confirms my suspicion and prejudice that on the '03 the fronts should be used (1) only for light (sub 20 lb for both sides) loads, and (2) for overflow from the main rear load.
I will continue to experiment. Anecdote: a few years ago, when I owned a Sam Hill (56, single tt, cantis) I had lowrider mounts brazed on and installed Duos. Just to try things, I loaded my fronts with ~30 or more lb. I could barely turn the bike!
