Ya they will fit. I have them on mine but you have to grind a bit off of the top of the shock so it fits the mount. When you put them up there you will see what you have to do. I did it in 5 min.

You dont have to grind them dont you can change the bolt out to a round headed bolt and face the nut upwards. I read it in the how to forums, for installing 450r shocks on a 400ex. Thanks now you know to what I didnt an hour ago.
