Impostor, a stock FZ1 shock bolts straight into the FZ8, no mods required and is a big improvement over the FZ8 shock
Don't even bother with the FZ1 shock. All it's good for a boat anchor.

It's light years ahead of the rubbish FZ8 shock. I've had one on my bike for about 8000km and I'm extremely happy with it. Much more control than the FZ8 shock while maintaining a plush ride. It's not an R1 by any means but I didn't want an R1 otherwise I would have bought one.
That maybe the case however it is no super star. Only compression damping can be adjusted, the range is limited, the they tend to over heat during a fast ride. Also the '06 spring is about 75lbs heavier than the '07 spring.
