600RR swingarm:


VFR800 swingarm:


Notice anything different? Okay, obviously there's differences, but look at the shock mounts.

Here's a naked VFR:


Naked 600RR:




The problem? Top of the CBR shock mounts to the swingarm. Bottom of the VFR shock mounts to the swing arm.


It's not a direct fit and you'll have to do some modifications to your bike to get the shock to work.

Wow!! Cool frame. That doesn't look like a stock frame & front end.

To the OP, there is probably is an aftermarket SSSA available for it.
