According to The Brooks Suspension website
https://www.brooksuspension.co.uk/motorcycle-shock-absorbers/Suzuki-dl-1000-v-strom-yss-mz456-shock-absorber-02-12
the one I'm selling will fit. (it came off a gen 2 650)
But if you want it, it's up to you to confirm the fit is OK.

Hi mate,

I did see yours for sale, My bike is a 14 plate thought. I don't think it will fit.

Thanks though

OK, it's just that you have K6 in your profile, I was thinking you had a 2006. 

However they also list the same shock for your year too?  :shrug:

That link for the newer model shows MZ456 model range but 345 rather than 340 Mick, different eye to eye length and bottom mount width..
