I believe they do, just with the usual mod to the battery box it seems. I've got a K5 model waiting to be fitted but I didn't think they changed much about them, not 100% though I'm afraid.
The question has been asked time and time again though so a search should yield some results. |

yes they do.. but you have to cut loads off the battery box....
and the k7-8 drops the back end.... loads.. i have one on mine and i think it dropped it about 1.5" just to add you have to get the k7-8 lower nut and bolt coz the sv one dont fit.... |

no they are 10mm shorter than standard, they will still fit fine and are better shocks than k5< i have a 06 to prove but it is smaller.
k4 k5 are better size wise

Hard, short and lots of cutting to fit - not that one then, I think.
Thanks all. |
