what happens to all of us is we adapt.  we adapt to worn tires as well as
tired shocks.  of course we all have had the experience of WOW with new
tires.  trust me, put quality shocks on your bike with a spring rate matched
to your actual riding weight.  until you do, there is no way anyone can
explain to you the immediate and impressive difference it will make.  fully
adjustable is a very good thing if you take the time to make the
adjustments.
