Trackability test tracks would usually be helpful for checking. If the results are close to the original specs or results from old reviews, that would seem a reasonably good indicator that the suspension is still ok. Alternatively one can also check for deflection und a certain static load, if the static compliance is specified.

It's quite surprising, how many among the old NOS needles are still good, suitable storage conditions provided.
