Don't know about the first one.  No way for the second.  I do know that Katana 600 shocks bolt right in.

Thanks about the second one...

What is wrong with the first.. it looks kinda fishy ( not tags ) or any but the GSX600F in EUR is the katana equivelant so should work ....shouldn't it ..?

That Kat shock looks different in cosmetic appearance than the others I have seen. It actually looks better. It will work just fine.

The GSXR shock can work if you do some cutting and welding.

Have I been scammed ..?

I got this spring supposed from a GSX600F from the above link and I checked on othe images of GSX600F springs and looks very different..... :(  :(

Can any agree or not ....

The first one didn't look like my Katana 600 shock.  Mine has a preload adjuster at the bottom.  Hopefully it will work.

Since it seems that you now own it, wait until you get it, put it in and see what happens.  Who knows, you may love it.  If it doesn't fit you can try to return it.
