I got a set of 11 1/2, eye to clevis from dime city cycles. Cycle x also carries them. I used them for a cb650, don't see why they wouldn't work for you. Hope it helps.

I suppose it depends on how you want to ride it. If you like spirited runs through the mountains i would avoid the CycleX shocks. They have some awesome stuff but their shocks are cheap Chinese junk, ok for round town riding but not a performance shock at all.
 Ikon, Progressive and Hagon are all quality shocks {i prefer Ikon}. Let us know what your intentions are an we'll take it from there.
