Trip's right about it not being a 'necessity', especially if you're not pushing the bike hard through curves. But as far as 'modding' goes, it's about the best thing you can do to improve the feel & handling of the bike. Way more important than cosmetic stuff or a louder pipe. Oh - if it hasn't been mentioned before though - another fairly inexpensive & easy mod is aftermarket front brake lines (and better pads, depending on how much the OE ones are lacking). Improves the 'feel' and modulation greatly.

yeah, svrider has a list of shocks with spring rates that you can use for the conversion that you can get used on ebay for dirt cheap. I am sure she can find one in her range on there.
That I agree with, I definitely feel suspension is the #1 go fast mod out there. Well unless you are one of those super squid straight line queen that is...
