I would leave well enough alone as a rigid & see how it rides first. It may very well be just fine as is with the replacement fork that's on it.
As to the suspension fork, I agree with the above poster. You'd
really want to have a strong reason & even if you did, finding one that fits
& would be worth owning would be neigh impossible.
If it were 1&⅛ it
may be worth a discussion from a hypothetical standpoint. But as above the geometry would be radically changed enough towards the opposite side of the rideability curve as to be something you probably wouldn't want to do.
