yep, any shock is better than the bandit one, even new they are crap,
there are plenty of othe options as well,
most of the gsxr shocks busa, zx9 ect ect the list goes on as to hat can fit the bandits

While I agree that just about any shock is better than the Bandit original, just be aware that most of the GSXR shocks are undersprung for the lump that is the Bandit. ps don't know spring rate for the Yam shock

Don't expect it to work wonders, a 2007 r6 is probably the best part of 50KG lighter than a bandit plus The front will not match and I believe cannot be adjusted.
