Just had both front forks replaced by Harley Japan under warranty as they had started to corrode at the top of the lower leg where the chrome cap sits. I had already upgraded the rear with progressive shocks but the front was still much to soft and spongy. Asked dealer about uprated springs and he said just change the fork oil to HD heavy duty. So they did this as part of the rebuild and the difference in the front end damping is significant. The front end has been stiffened up considerably. It is not spongy anymore and the dive under breaking is greatly reduced.
Definitely worth trying out this simple mod before spending lots of cash on the front end.
