ok i know its not a650

its a tl 1000 SV lol

i wanna get rid of standard shock.

after making a bracket i been told i can use another shock of about 280mm long to replace the standard fluffy rotary damper on my tls.

anyone know what bikes have a shock of this size?

with dampening properties?

You want to join Oldskoolsuzuki, you do. And TLPlanet as well, if you've not already. And then possibly, not shoehorn a shock from another bike into a 120bhp bike :)

Get this, it's the dog's 'nads for the TLS.

Don't bid, just make sure you're in front of the PC when it ends ;)

A real pity, that is the best mod for the TLS rear end I'm told. Stops the rotary damper snapping the frame lug I hear.
