Yea - looks like I have to replace the shocks. Anybody have some from a parts bike that are in good working order they can part with? Bets price I've been able to find is $210 for some progressive shocks. I'm sure they're much better than stock but my bike is worth maybe $1,400 bucks here in Hawaii.
