What can I do with my stock suspension to improve the ride? I weigh 185lbs. with out gear and only drive at a leisurely pace.

I would put in a small handlebar riser, and most importantly build a seat riser.
I did both to my 02 Viper, and the angling of the seat giving it an almost rider forward stance was a "Fuccillo" HUGE difference to the comfort of the ride. Especially on long trips. I have had a few people set on my sled and they concur. I'm 6'1" and when I used to set on the sled my legs were bent very uncomfortably, now w/ the seat riser, it lessens the angle my knees are at, and the higher angle seems to lessen the bumps, as I am able to get off the seat if I need to quicker(less pain in the back). I wish I did these mods earler. There are a couple of links on this site to make your own seat riser. Can be done for under $40 buying all the necessary parts. My $.02.

Also may want to have your shocks re-oiled/gassed.
