Hi riders,

after studying this I believe the 05 gsxr 1000 shock is the one that suits best my needs, regerding lenght and spring rate (332,5 mm and 450 lb).

My question is if it will fit without cutting the battery box?? SV K3 has a higher mounted sub-frame, equals to more space for the reservoir?

There is another possible option 08+ GSXR 600/750 (no need to cut), but will lower the tail (around 1 1/2"). I donīt want to go that route, cause it will need newer dogbones to raise it up back, and I donīt know how much. Wich ones to pick or where.

Thanks for any info you can provide specifically for the K3.

both need cutting

and you might want to look up the lengths again i found the only gsxr shock that was good was the 1000 k3

Do not fit shorter shock, ride height is thing it needs most.
