The 07 GSXR shock is the same length as the 300 stocker baby bumper boinger. The lower clevis is too narrow to fit over the link so I decided to carefully grind the inside of the clevis on a bench grinder. I took my time and kept it flat, rechecking the fit constantly so it wouldn't get too big and sloppy. It is about 2mm too thin.

Total time spent after I gleaned the tip to space out the dog bones a1/2" was about 45 minutes total in the garage. I spent $16 on the new bolts/nuts/washers and the shock was $25 shipped off Ebay. I managed to get a second shock for $25 shipped and will have a back up to try some valving with in the future.
