Morning all. I’ve just bought a second hand Nitron front shock for my 1150 GS.
My question is how do I set this up for me ?
 
That depends on what you weigh, how you plan to load the bike, how you ride and what adjustment is available on the unit.

Was the current spring installed for a rider of certain weight range ?
Preload only, as per the original front shock ?
Preload plus damping ?

Your question is too vague to provide a useful response.
There are any number of YouTube videos that will assist.
 
Set the sag; static and rider.
After that..er .. tinker with the damping to see how it feels
Take note of the intial settings to be able to revert if necessary
