Rhino, I am at work so when I get home I will post a pic of the set I have. The thing that I really like about the EMS is you can really fine tune your ride. You can change the ride hieght by 32nds of an inch if you want.

I went to the Progressive website and checked the chart for exactly what fit my bike and then went to easternperformance.com and ordered what I wanted based on fitment. Good price, no charge for shipping, and I had them in 2 days.

Rhino, here ya go. http://www.tedtine.com/shocks.html These are the best out there IMHO. Have tried them all and no others offer as much adjustability as these. To each his own but I highly recommend these. Just my opinion.

Rounder, all the way out the set I have measure 12.25. All the way in they measure about 10.75. That's 1.5" of adjustability on the ride height. I think on the web site it looks to me that they are measured all the way in.

I know you stated you have run many shocks, have you had some works shocks before?
Also how much these run you?
