No, I don't think the standard shocks are interchangeable.

Re: swapping a shock
I am under the Impression that the Shocks are interchangable, but you need to change the Linkages aswell in order for it to work. but DONT QUOTE ME ON THIS!!!!

Re: swapping a shock
They have different top mountings.
The RVF shock is probably a crapper shock than the VFR one anyways...

Re: swapping a shock
the rvf standard shock will bolt straight on with no mods.
tried it myself ages ago. spring seems slightly firmer than nc30 shock
