Also its lower by 5mm which isn't a bad thing since I have height issues, I can compensate for the difference raising the forks?

Uhhh looks like the mods were made for him while he told me otherwise! DOH!

Gina, at your size I don't think you need to worry about the shock being too soft.

Thats what I was thinking, if the Gixxer shock stock is fine then I can just do a swap instead of repsring etc? I think the one we redid was more for Evan's weight. Tommymac should have a spare.

The difference is that the resevoir on the zx10 shock is at 90 degrees to the shock while the GSXR is at approx 45 deg. With the zx10 shock, the only thing you have to do is remove the worthless piece of plastic in front of the tool kit storage. I have no idea what purpose this little thing has, but just chuck it. The shock then fits snugly under the battery box. No cutting required. Truly the hardest part of the entire process is getting to the screws that hold the plastic piece on.

Well being that I have seen dead shiveled penises at lab, not too much.

I'll probably want kids when I am too old to concieve

Gina, if you get one of the Sears large cases, see if you can get a spare rear seat. Remove the foam, recover, and mount the case directly to the spare seat. That way, you don't have to buy all of the racks, etc., just the mounting plate. When you don't want the case on, you just put the original rear seat back on. Great for touring/commuting since you can lock your stuff up.

that's exactly what I plan on doing as soon as someone here gets one and tells us what the case is like
