the pointy shock is 330mm length & 430lb/inch (or # in american) spring rate, you just need to find one that (nearly) matches those. any of these would do the job:

00-03 GSXR750 325mm 400#
01-02 GSXR1000 329.5mm 430#
04 GSXR600 332.5mm 425#
03-04 GSXR1000 332.5mm 480#
05 GSX-R 1000 332.5mm 450#

yes. the reservoir on the replacement shock (on whatever you choose as replacement) will foul the battery box, which will need some trimming
