Exclamation Shocking Problem

Sorry bout the title, i couldnt resist
Heres the prob, im looking at turning my Z into a road racer and have hit up on a problem with the rear suspension, as alot of you will know all that can be said for these is that the rear 'shocks' keep the tyre off the frame and make the ride alittle softer. Does anyone know of a good shock setup to suit the stock swinger that will give me some sort of predictable handling?

Long live the Zed! Some postie bikes had koni's on the back, ring around the wreckers and see what you can find. I think they're a touch longer than the zed springs-on-sticks.
