There are pics around I think..
The busa seems to fit where the GSXR doesn't. I think it has to do with the distance from the lower link to the spring. The larger diameter spring fouls the swing arm. In pictures the two shocks look the same but I wasn't able to get the GSXR shock to work were several members have the busa. The battery box needs to be moved about 1 1/2 inches to the rear. This is to make room for the piggy back reservoir. I'm not sure there are any year shocks that fit better then others.
