You're quite heavy so you'll feel the benefit by fitting a stiffer (kwak) shock... |

Yarp they're sort of top mounted, another U shaped piece with a bit nut on top so you can play with that. Exactly same as ride height adjuster on ohlins or whatever just on t'other end of shock.

What? No you can't use that adjusment on the SV ...the mount is welded to the back of frame, not bolted in like the GSXR.
You can use dogbones to raise rear a bit
