Ile take a guess here, its a curvey.
Loki here: http://forums.sv650.org/viewtopic.php?p=325606#325606 Not all are possable on the curvey though as its just a spring length and rate list. These will fit a curvey though. 03-04 ZX10R 03-04 ZX6RR(636) A couple of SRAD shocks, but they are way older and usaly much more millage that the ZX shocks above. They all need a little cutting though. The ZX shocks seem to come nearest to the original spring rate of the SV shock and length.

If your interested PM me. I would point out though that there was a hlins shock on ebay that may be of some use. IIRC it is a base model one and not the all singing all dancing one but never the less still ohlins and fully rebuildable |
