I'm gonna say if you can afford it, go with valving and springs. I've had Hyperpro stuff before.....and IMO, it's Hype. I'm looking at doing the https://traxxion.com/product/cartridge-kit-ak20h-st1300/
Yip! It's some coin. I had them valve and spring the rear several years ago. I can't complain, but I didn't get a Penski either.

I have no idea what the Hyperpro kit costs, but you might consider RaceTech's Gold Valves. They make a significant difference. I did the forks, then sent them the rear shock. When I did this work on my ST there were a few guys here who had also done it and were very happy w/ the results. Sadly, all of those threads and that conversation is long since gone.
I replaced the forks and shock on my '04. It was easy-peasy. The shock was the most expensive piece. The company was very supportive. It really made difference on the handling once set up. Went with a 7 weight fork oil. Mixed it myself.
Performed a full brake fluid and pad service while at it.
My two cents worth.

That’s a big spread, I think Honda is 7wt. 15 may be teeth jarring. @dduelin has an extraordinarily keen grasp of this. He maybe able to shed some light.
