Common mod for a Pre Gen is a New Gen rear shock. It raises the rear a bit.

Generally an improvement, and very inexpensive. A true quality aftermarket replacement shock is pretty expensive, though there is a new thread here (https://www.ninjette.org/forums/showthread.php?t=312824) about an inexpensive aftermarket shock that might be worth looking into.

Fork springs are too light for most as well. Sonic Springs is a good choice for those.
