tommy when I got my latest 600 it had done 51000 miles & the suspension was shagged! After all it was basic when new.
Near me in West Mids (Halesowen) reside Revs Racing who only do suspension. I ordered a Wilbers rear shock((quality German brand) with spring designed for my weight -&.riding style which I suspect is similar to yours. To say it transformed the handling would be an understatement but it then highlighted the tired front end. So they rebuilt the front forks with new springs, seals & heavier weight oil. She now goes where I point her. Didnt want to mess about with jacking up rear/altering front fork leg height in yokes. Cost was £295 for rear unit & £212 for front rebuild. Very happy I am-no more pogo sticks :lol
