Hi
I have read the threads about the Hyperpro progressive suspension upgrade, however it is not clear if the bikes that were modified were the "old" 800's (prior to 2013) or the later models with the Whitepower suspension.

Mine is a GS800 2013 model with the electronic rear suspension, supposedly Whitepower suspension. I am experiencing head shake at around 90kmh on dirt roads with corrugations. The front suspension is also quite mushy, there is a lot of sag when you just sit on the bike. It has done only 11,000 km. People I have spoken to say that a front progressive spring upgrade will sort this problem out.

Anyone else upgraded the front springs on their 2013 or newer model?
