Andy,

I just left you a voice mail.

I have a 2007 200 XC sitting in my shed. I don't know if the shock is a direct swab or not, but I would assume it is.

I don't plan on riding the bike anytime soon, so if you wanted to take it apart to use it, you're more then welcome to it.

Of course, putting it back together, and slapping some grease in there would be nice too.....

I think Tom's shock would bolt on, but it's not the same. The big frame/suspenion changes hit the KTM's in 08, so the shock is a bit longer on the 08's, and they have a more laid down angle. You'd at the very least have to change the spring to the one on the 08 now.

If I was were closer, you could borrow mine. Sorry to hear about the problem.
