this thread gives shock length as 337mm

dont know about spring rate but from racetech calculator i would estimate it to be somewhere around 6kg/mm

All the Curveys were the same..

Length 337mm rate is 510 lb/in or 9.1 kg/mm

If you are looking for a replacement, do a search, there are loads of threads about it. Many include the now fabled shock length / rate table which lists suitable shocks from other bikes that give an improvement.
