Just to correct the what Gaz66 said about the S1000rr shock spring rate
The spring rate of the 2010 S1000RR shock is 8.5 Kg/mm and 10mm longer than FZS1000 shock
The spring rate of the 2012 S1000RR shock is 8.4 Kg/mm and 5 mm longer than FZS1000 shock. This is the best shock to go for
This is 1 more Kg/mm spring than the 2001-2005 FZS1000 Shock which is only 7.5 Kg/mm
It is more than capable of taking 100Kg rider and I have used it two up with luggage with a combined weight of 160Kg without issues.
However as I have stated previously it is best to use a 10mm spring shim to allow more adjustment of the spring preload as it is easy to go to the end of adjustment without it
