If so, what kind of improvement have you had. Also, Hagon does have fork springs for '05's available. Stock up for spring!!!

Guess theres not much need to change shocks on a 1 (oops 2 ) year old bike.

Probably not if going with a Hagon! More of a stock replacement shock than any thing else.

Simply put some will argue that there is nothing better. but they are pricey! Compared to the Hagon....like comparing a Toyota Corolla and a Six Series BMW. Both are good at the task, they just go about it differently!

Doesn't wound like suspension upgrades are going to provide increase in traction or stability in cornering like upgrading the Bonneville suspension did, will it?

Personally I have not done the rear shock simply because of cost. I can't afford almost a grand for a top of the line shock. (personally I don't think they can justify that kind of price anyway) But, for those who have stepped up to an Ohlins, Penske. or a Wilburs they rave about them and will tell you that suspension upgrades were the best money they have ever spent.
