hi a nice quick question is the rear shock on an MC18 interchangeable with that from a 21?

No, they are different lengths. The MC18 is shorter.

You may be able to adapt an early CBR600 shock, as they are a similar length. They are also available with a remote reservoir and fully adjustable. I seem to recall the CBR shock is slightly taller than the MC18 too, but only marginally.

F3 '18 shock is a mile shorter than the '21 shock and I think a slightly larger dia but I can't quite remember.
