The shocks are Konis and he had them listed for sale way over priced for a long time with no buyers, so i guess he decided to put them on the suzuki as no one was interested in them at that price. They are pretty good shocks though for their time.
Wanted - 1978 TS185 frame or frame&motor. Frame # TS1852-24007 up to TS1852-39022

I'd have said they were IT400C forks too (but w shortened forktubes), which would be circa 76


Yeah, I doubt they've been shortened too much though - take too much off and you wouldn't have all that gap between the front wheel and mudguard.

I'd guess they've been pushed through the triples about 30 or 40mm compared to standard IT400C location, and then the excess cut off at the top of the triples..
