Gas cartridge Shock.Recharge or Replace??



OK I feel stupid now..but I have an excuse since this is my first
bike with actual suspension...How much does it run to have the rear
gas shock recharged??? One of my starting issues with the bike
is..When on the kick stand ..the bike drops too much and the kick
stand is too long..falls over...I am planning on getting the kick
stand shortened by a welder friend up the street but I also noticed
that when I tried to stiffen my rear there wasnt any change..cranked
it in all the way and then out...no change...So I think it may need a
recharge..there doesnt seem to be any oil or anything around the shaft
BTW it all looks clean. I think if I can make the bike more stable on
the kickstand I should be able to stand on the pegs to start it....OH
and I do know that its me...Tommy went out and started it 1 kick
yesterday.
TIA Guys..you helped me through the XR100 and I am hoping y'all can
get me through this XR200
