Does anyone know much about the CB900F Adjustable shocks and are they any good for our bikes?

I'm using a pair on my 500, they are
too tall, but by adding a shock lowering
kit they turned out just fine.
I love 'em!
Bikes parked out front mean good chicken-fried steak inside.

Hmm I'm looking for rear shocks for my 650... How long are the 900F shocks? Are they eye-to-clevis?

I believe they are 14" from what Ive been told eye to eye. If interested I have a really good set of CB650 shocks. Im parting out a CB650 as we speak. Let me know.

If they're "stock" 650 shocks, they're still at least 27 years old... I'm looking for "upgrades."
