A question about shocks

I know the seat height is a little taller on the Rockster than the Roadster. Does the Roadster simply have shorter shocks? I love the looks of the Rockster but the seat height of the Roadster so if I can simply change out the shocks I would have the best of both worlds. Thanks for the info.

The Rockster has a taller seat than the Roadster. There are three seats available, low, standard and high (sport). One can pick and choose when originally buying the bike, at least that was when I bought my Roadster in 02.

The shocks on the rockster are the "S" shocks. They are a little taller than
the "R"shocks.
Last year, I replaced the standardshock of my R with
Hyperpro's.
They costed me about 200 euro's and my bike rides much better with them!
The looks you get is about the same as with the standard rockstershock!
And a forthcomming advantage: No footscrapping while taking thight turns for
about a year (now I drive fatser trough the corners so my feet started
scraping the asphalt again...

)
