If your feeling handy you can try this, it's for the KLR650 but the suspension is the same as the Ninjette.

give it a quick look over for anything obvious. then remove it and look at it again. If nothing glaring that is easy to fix just buy a used replacement for like $25. I think the new gen shock is a direct swap but performs a little better.

Buy used one in e-bay and replace. If you remove the top bolt holding the shock absorber and the Unitrack mechanism and arm swing freely, it is the shock absorber. All the articulations may need a good cleaning, rust removal and fresh grease. Follow the work indicated in the links of post #2 above.
