1979 XS 750
Hi all,
I’m wondering if any of y’all have experience with replacing/upgrading the shocks on an XS750. The shocks that come stock on the bike handle like a waterbed, as they were designed for touring. I wouldn’t trust this bike to do any touring with, so I’m looking for something a little stiffer. I’m also wondering if it’s a good idea to replace the rear shocks without doing the front, because they’re also complete mush, but from what I’ve seen I’d need to do a full fork swap to get anything better.
Thanks!
