Stroke comparison on shock is 125 mm for the old and 130 mm for the new (this give better control on the shock speed and more reliable shock)
Lenght of the shock is 427 mm for the old and 449 mm for the new (this increase the volume of oil and the distance between the two support of the piston to get better reliability on the shock)
Rear wheel stroke is 290 mm for the old and 300 mm for the new (this give better comfort on big jump)
Assembly system of the full link is made with better sealing component to decrease the necessity of maintenance (old one made by OR and new one made by sealing ring)

Still in spanglish, but you get the idea
