Decided after a good chat with Jonnyboxer in Leenane that it would be good to upgrade my suspension so have posted in the Wanted section.

Have you thought about having your shocks serviced? I had mine serviced and the correct springs fitted to my weight and it has transformed how the bike feels now.
I used Denz0 at t-tech suspension. If you call Lucasz and explain what you what you are trying to achieve I'm sure he will be able to offer some great advice and the upgrade could be a fraction of the cost of Ohlins etc....
Secondhand shocks are fine but will still need to be serviced and set up properly to get the full benefit.
Just collected the GS this morning from Lukascz (Denz0). He replaced the front suspension unit with a new YSS unit and serviced the rear unit, replacing the rear spring at the same time.
What a difference it has made! Loving the ride now, and all done for a very reasonable price (IMHO).
The bike has done over 100,000 miles and the old units were (unsurprisingly) somewhat corroded.
