The 450R and 400EX rear shocks will NOT fit the R.

will any other shock fit the 250r thats newer???

you coould probably make any honda shock work, but if its not a "250r" shock then it would need to have a remote rezzie.

Not that I know of, or have heard of. Like KY said, you can make anything work if you want to put the time and effort into it.

What exactly are you looking for anyway? The stocker isn't up to par or what? If that's the case you can always get it rebuilt, which is relatively cheap when considering looking for aftermarket shocks (new or used). The stock shock is actually pretty decent. A lot of people just get them re-sprung/re-valved and run those. Also, if you shop around you can find some decent used aftermarket shocks for fair prices.
