Check the number carefully. I think the second part of the number should have 5 digits.
That's based on the Suzuki shocks I have around here.

Brent, i checked that,4 digits for sure.
Resi body is narrower than a suzi and the shock body has a plastic sleave between the spring.Spring is progressive wound.
Just curious what its off.

A close up pic would help. Also have you measured the length off the bike? They could be KLX or KX, if they have narrow reservoirs, i cant see them being anything else. KLX are 460mm and your probably 5mm off if you measured them on the bike. Yeah just looking again at them, i would say they are KLX250 which are WAY too long for a PE.

I should have paid more attention to the length ::)

They are the same shocks I cut up to use on my XT.

Yeah measured off the bike Leith,give or take a couple of mm ;D
I figured kawa going by the spring and narrow resi.
It was on there (1)holding up the bike,just a junk shocker really and wanted to confirm the #
Debating on what to do with some junk in the shed and sick of tripping over stuff or moving things just getting to the mower.
Might be time to find new homes.
cheers..mario
