Katana 600 Rear Shock to fit my Gs500f

[Gs500f-Mod]

So my question is i need a new rear shock for my 04 Gs500f as mine is like a trampoline, i was wandering if anyone would know which year range of Katana 600 would straight swap. Also if anyone knows where i might pick one up in Sydney? (worth a shot)
Thanks in advance [8] [8] [8] [8]

Consensus seems to be that the 06-07 R6 shock is a better bet. Look for the one with the horizontal reservoir and red spring. Check ebay, I picked one up for a steal on there.
