Blinkey - this link covers swapping a swingarm and a shock - don't worry too much about the swingarm stuff (for now :smt002 ) but the stuff on the shock might help you to understand

Just had an Öhlins from a Tuono with linkages put on this afternoon, and the difference is superb. Slightly higher riding position than the blue sachs, but definitely better handling, and more comfortable too down the B roads :smt003

I have a maxton rear shock in my falco. Bought it like that! never had a problem apart from being set up for a heavier rider than myself, probably could do with a service soon.
