just aquestion off the top of my head after reading the rear shock thread.

How do i know when it is time to replace my rear shock? my bike has 23000 miles and it seems to be fine but i was wondering if i should get some sort of a tune up for it.

saggy behind, feels too soft, too bouncy/not enough dampening no matter how you adjust it...etc.

A buddy shows you a pic of you on the bike and it looks like you're riding a permanent wheelie.

My F4 has right at 49k and the rear shock it still stiff as it can be.

That's cuz you weigh about .99 cents soaking wet Playful.
