The most recommended replacement shock for the GS500 is an '89+ Katana 600 standard issue. The katana was a GSX 600 F. In most cases Katana is the katana 600 (not 750 or 1100) from 89-02. They made a 600 Kat in 88 also but that shock was not as good as the later one. It only had spring preload vs. the spring and rebound in the later ones.

says Not the 750 or 1100

but I personally dont know.
I simply bought an 89 Kat 600 shock, was no need to do anymore research then that.

I've installed that gen Katana 750 shock. Spring is very stiff, but okay for a rider who weighs > 200lbs. Fitment is very tight - you may need a pry bar or grinder to install it.

If it doesn't work for you, I might be interested.
