Make sure to upgrade the fork springs/oil at the same time, riding it with a quality rear shock and shitty front suspension is not a fun time.

Just make sure that the difference in length doesn't make a significant difference in the handling. You probably won't notice it on the street but it will probably be very different at the track.

I did a similar shock swap on the SV using the rear shock from a XZ14R

What he said. I thought "how bad could it possibly be" when I did the rear but was waiting on the parts for the front.

Think pogo stick bolted to a rock.
