I've fitted EMC suspension shocks. Feel very nice.

I think he's asking what are the specs for the stock shocks, not what to replace with ...
Can I ask why? Just for reference, and may not be relevant as somewhat different model, I have the 850 special with gas damped progressive shocks which seem to work very well as far as I can tell, mind you I'm not scratching or off roading with it nor am especially heavy. |

For what it’s worth, I too have a v 850 special and am also very happy with the shocks, though again I am no racer nor heavy. These KYB models are a vast improvement over the shocks fitted to the v7 iii.
