Nightster front fork upgrade help.
Changed the rear shocks on my 07/8 Nightster with Road king air shocks.Brought the height up a bit and improved the ride a lot. Looking to stop the front forks being so compressed now. Looking on here everyone seems to go for the progressive springs but what ones would I need? I mean size,length and would I need to use heavier fork oil. All help appreciated.Cheers.

It really helped out with the quality of ride after I put on my air shocks. Night and day really, you can try heavier oil, the oil is pretty cheap and easy to change if you decide it's too stiff.
You may be able to just keep your stock springs and use heavier oil and/or a preload spacer (that same 3/4" PVC pipe) and get what you are looking for on the cheap.
