Question is will it fit a 08+ zx10r?

Yes it does fit.... but the cost to retro fit doesnt make it worth it.

Aye, I'll answer this so others know why it is troublesome for future reference...

Parts needed & most will be above 100 dollars BTW, if not nearer 2...:-

1) Body cap has a different shape - Unit Pro-link sw-arm = different.

2) Machine different bearings for top section (width) - parts and or time in labour...

3) replace bottom eye with clevis type fitment

4) shaft length

5) inner tube (twin tube is what the TT in TTX means; doubled barreled i.e.)

6) outer tube

7) stop spring & likely a main spring

Same shock length but would still have different internal set up if I guess correctly
