a 2000, the fork springs are to soft and as easy as I am with driveways etc.. it bottoms out easy. Any ideas on how to make the front end better? :?

You can try putting in a heavier oil than that recommended by the book. Make sure you put EXACTLY THE SAME AMOUNT in both forks (Use a measuring cup)

If that doesn't work, probably will need new fork springs. Progressive suspension should have (Among others)
