Rear Shocks

[Bob Seymour]

Any of you fellas out there have a decent pair of shocks in the 16 to 16 1/2 inch eye to eye length that you would be interested in parting with? Preferably Ohlins or Works Performance. I am looking for a decent set for my 79KTM 420.  Thanks

Bob,

The two '79's I have here, have stock shocks on them - and a shock length of 13 3/4" . I also have a '79 420 over at work, which I'll check it's shock length on today.

Thanks Rob. I'd be curious to know what brand of shock is on the 420 your parting out. Both of my 79 KTM 250s have shocks that are right in the 14.5 to 15 inch center of eye to center of eye length. The 420 is actually right at 16.25 inches. If you have a set that is in good functional shape I'd be interested in hearing back.
