get ya stock shock rebuilt by Sasquatch Suspension like I did...big big bang for the buck at $450+$25shipping in my case, for complete rebuild
as I understand it, Jay the owner takes only the Yamaha stock shock shell, cuts it open - drills and taps holes,
and puts Penske or Penske level internals customized to you from a two page fact sheet you fill out.

I couldn't be happier
Nice enough peep(s) in my case sent their spare worn out stock shock (mine is off TWN's bike) to sasquatch to rebuild.
I then had it shipped to my Cycle Repair Shop where they held it until I could trailer my bike in for install.
That way, the bike was down a minimal amount of time.
I know have my worn out shock to return to the nice peep who sent his in for me.

I don't believe a shock cares whether or not you have ABS. It's the same shock. Just sayin'.
