Re: Rear suspension and fork upgrades questions for NC29
I'm not racing now - because SS400 had been canceled in Ukraine.
As for the suspension I'm using
Rear: FOX Racing rear shock - new Hyperpro spring, rebuild by Taxxion Dynamics balanced to my weight.
Front: Full CBR600RR front end. I was planning to change calipers for R1 due to less weight and was planning to changes the valves, but due to reason below keep stock for know.
Also having HyperPro damper.
Bike run greatly compare with stock SHOWA rear shock. Some guys run NC35 USD forks - think it also good and maybe ligther than CBR600RR 07 but I have no posibilty to compare.

Check the length and mounting - all between 285 - 320mm between mounting holes should be work for you. But keep in mind changing the rear geometry you need to change front and so on.
This is stock measurements:
