Just measured , 750cc slabbie front fork is about 775mm long ( unloaded ) and 750cc slingshot (J/K) front fork is about 725mm long (unloaded) ,so difference in lenght is about 50mm , 

question , if slabbie front end goes 50mm down it will that new geometry negative influence overall bike stability ? 

No.

Slabbie race bike has j/k forks and the rear jacked up. No steering damper and doesnt need one.

1.1 KG springs are stiff for the road even for a 120kg rider.  and about the max you'd use on track unless you are an international level rider.

Thanks for clarification ! 

Will try both front ends , slabbie one and J/K one and will compare characteristic on the road .
