st1100 abs I forks rebuild- stock or progressive?

Adding more preload to the forks doesn't change the spring compression at all, it compresses by the same amount regardless of what length spacer is inside the fork because the force being applied (the weight of the bike on the forks) is the same regardless of the spacer length.
Yes, you don't change the progression curve... you only 'eliminate' the soft part of the spring (bottom of curve)...
