Google is your friend.  Buy from a legit suspension company. You can also measure shocks eye-to-eye and search ebay for used, brand name.

YSS is cheapest of the cheap.  If you want budget, thats your brand.  You want performance, parts availability, tuning, etc, spend more money.

Buy once, cry once.


 
YSS makes both cheap and expensive.  I posted info earlier.  There is nothing cheap and inferior about their adjustable damping shocks.  For cheapest of the cheap, get Emgo, or some other china cheepies.

YSS recommends 340mm.  If you go longer, and still have the stock exhaust, the swingarm may hit the mufflers.  The center stand may not lift the bike also.  If you have modded, nevermind and enjoy!
