Topic: What size shocks for a 1978 CB750K with 1977 GL1000 front end and tall rider?

[mycoal]

I've swapped my front end with a 1977 GL1000 and understand that this picks the front just a tad. I'm looking for used shocks to replace my stock ones. Maybe some off a  DOHC CB750K, not sure yet. Not really into spending $200 on shocks at this point. So my question is what is a good length to look for 11, 12, 13, 14 inches?? Or what old bike has the shocks I need? I'm 6'2 and 220lbs. So I would like to have the rear raised up to accommodate that if possible.

Thanks
