I have an 85 Westy that sags in the rear, but evenly. Doesn't do that listing to one side thing. I was wondering if replacing the shocks might help a bit? I didn't want to go the expense of new springs (if I thought that nothing else would break I might, but something is going to . . . ) If so, I was going to go with the stock shocks (Boge if I recall?) Ride is a little bouncy right now, and shocks have never been replaced in the last 180k km since I've owned it.

Thanks for the advice Jeff
