This has come up a couple times and theres a list of shocks that will fit the SV. I believe the original shock is 330mm in length.

http://www.kuhnco.com/SV650/GSXRShockSwap/

The above site lists some shocks that will fit the bike plus the best weight ranges and also has a guide on installing the shock. I was installing a GSXR 1000 K1 shcck but it doesn't fit with shorter dogbones on the bike so Im going to be installing an srad shock instead.

Good luck.
