Hey Richard. I'm not sure if these are the shocks on the bike or not because I don't have it in my possession yet. It's over 250 miles away at the dealer I purchased it from. They are going to transport it to their sister dealer that's only about 50 miles away from my home after they take care of a couple of things for me. I will either have to wait until I get it in my possession or I may contact them to see if the shocks are stock or not. The bike already has the 4 point docking hardware installed so hopefully I won't have an issue. Time will tell. I appreciate the info and pics. Thanks

The measurements can be tricky, especially with all the different options out there. What I ended up doing was using a browser ruler to get a more accurate idea of the dimensions. It let me compare the measurements on the screen with what I had in front of me, which helped a lot before making a final decision. It’s a quick and easy way to make sure things will fit right without having to rely solely on the listed specs.
