Yorkie Chris is your expert here I believe, do a search as there was a good thread on here stating which are the ones to use.

They pretty much all will. Some just take more hacking on the bike.

how much difference do you think it'll make to the bike.

Its a step up, you will have adjustable suspension so you can set it up to suit your weight (best to start from GSXR stock settings).

Best to get help from one of the professional suspension wizards, start from stock first and see how that feels.

You can get the stock settings from anyone who owns a GSXR of that year as it is written in the handbook, or simply email Suzuki.

Only if you try to ride it like one....

No it will be fine. When fitting wierd shocks to mine I put all the adjusters bang in the middle of their range and see what happens. Rebound screw being too far in is only potentially dangerous one really.
