I take it that goes for both the zx6 and zx10 shocks. is that the only extra part you need to change shocks. Forgot to mention i ended up buying the ZX10r shock on ebay today. Found out it was actually taken from a 2005 model. couldn't pass up the chance to get the exact shock i needed in mint condition
