I'll have a go at the forks during this week, will bring it for a run first.

That rust or whatever, on the forks, can probably be removed most safely by rubbing it with a cloth smeared with a LITTLE bit of any brand of whitening toothpaste.
I have even used that method on the bolt of one of my favorite rifles when my ex had stored it in a damp place for months. It was slick before that, but now it almost locks by itself! Anyway, coat it with a light oil after cleaning off the toothpasts.
