lol no I get it....but changing the shock is such a hassle...well in the GSXR and SV650 shock upgrade case.

But the Kat shock is just bolt on right?....so easier, hmmm I guess I would reconsider changing to the Kat750 shock

GSXR 90-95 750 and 91-98 1100 does fit ... but yes linkage has to be shaved. I am out ... I need all the cores back.
SV650 - forget it its not even close.
Kat 6/7's fit like the proverbial glove.
Cool.

Someone selling their GS500F on GTAM put in the SV650 shock with some modifications of course, but it WAS done lol

You can cram it in there ... yea sure.
Someone I know even crammed a 650 motor from the 80's into it. :icon_twisted:
Cool.
