I'm not surprised he couldn't help with info you've given us

Fit a hagon one for some improvement without adjustability.

Hagon is direct replacement.Much improvement on standard shock. Obviously may need slight adjustment from factory for your weight, but pretty much a take old one out, put new one in shock.

That lot would have been useful in OP
What do you use the bike for?

I think the reason Zoran does not offer re springing is I don't think he reckons it's worthwhile considering the quality of OEM shocks.
