Talk to me about shorter fork tubes.

I'm trying to buy some shorter fork tubes for my 2014 heritage to bring the front end down as low as I can get it but I'm getting conflicting information from websites and also struggling to find somewhere that ships to the UK (for a reasonable price at least anyway. Fucking rushbikes want $600 shipping for a $200 item!)

I'm wanting 2" shorter than stock but some websites are telling me that 2" shorter is 20.25" and some are saying it's 22.25" and stock size is apparently 24.25".

Obviously with being in the UK it's not like it's easy to send parts back to the US if they aren't the right size so can anyone here shed some light on what size I'll actually need and possibly throw me some links on where I could get some from?

Xcexution style has what appears to be the right set but they're pre-drilled and tapped for air ride valves. I've already got air ride valves in my HHI raked triple trees so I imagine they won't work unless I plug them and still can't be 100% they'll be airtight.

Can anyone help a brother out?

Thanks in advance 🤙🏻

Just got to find somewhere that will ship a layframe swingarm and shorter tubes then it'll be ready for paint!
