Standard front forks reshimmed with 1.05-1.1kg springs and good fork oil about $400,biketek.Next you could gold valve or ohlins valve,then ultimately ohlins forks.Stage 1 best bang for buck.For road the rear spring is okay but valving is average.I didn,t have much success revalving my vfr shock so i bought an aftermarket one which was massively better.Check if the rear can be successfully revalved/reshimmed first for a tight budget otherwise an aftermarket rear shock can give you greater adjustability for dampening,hydraulic preload,ride height and bling.Worst case scenario,do the forks first,they're way too soft for your weight.
