Do you have a threaded adjuster on that shock? I had heard that some early 750's came with a cam adjuster but I have yet to see any. Anyway I would suggest sticking with that shock and getting a different spring for it. I don't know what your $ limitation is but you could also get it revalved as well. You can actually make a pretty good performing shock out of that basic shock.

Also just in case nothing has been done to the front you should get a set of 1.0 kg/mm fork springs.
