Default ZX10 06-07 shock fit Curvy?

Done a few searches but getting mixed answers, so bit of help needed please!

Would a zx10r 06-07 be an appropriate fit for my 2002 curvy?

I gather it suits a pointy, but might be a bit soft for a rider of my weight (14.5st).

Any help much appreciated.

One thing I know is the zx10 shock is very stiff, good if your heavier e.g. 14 stone plus..

Curvy standard spring rate is 9.1kg/mm or 510lb/inch.
06/07 zx10r spring rate is 8.3kg/mm or 465lb/inch.

Although the length is right the zx spring will be softer than the standard curvy spring you have at the moment so at your weight you might be best considering something else unless you can be bothered to respring the zx shock.
