I do not think so. I can't remember the reason that was provided me. But I asked a similer question a while back.

the R has a "forked" lower mount.

Even if it fit physically, you would have one heck of a valving problem. As the Cannondale uses no linkage on the rear shock and the Honda uses a leverage type linkage. I don't remember which, but it would be either way too soft or way too hard.
