Howdy,

Is it possible to beef up the front suspension of a 1150GS without buying a KTM?

On a recent trip, I hit a small to midsize rock (felt like a boulder), and demolished both fork seals. I know the real suspension is the shock, and there is nothing but fork oil in the forks (no springs). But, is it possible, say, to replace the forks with WP forks?

I like the 1150GS, but the front suspension is rather suspect.
