Here's a cheap trick:

find a set of used fork springs from a Honda VTR1000 Superhawk (they also have 41mm forks). I dont remember the rate, but when I calculated it before installing mine, they were perfect for my 180lbs weight.

The springs are a tad different length than the stock NSR springs, so you will need to cut some PVC pipe to make new spring spacers to match the stock springs/spacers.

If you are anywhere near a racetrack, you may even get these springs for free (racebike upgrade throw-aways). Cool
