yup..me too Bill..measured the 400C and the 125C units and they are 395mm as well. So far as I knew the shocks on all the RM b's and C's (excepting 80's and 100's) were identical length The A model shocks without the remote res maybe a little shorter from memory but I don't have 1 to measure. I think N/T shocks may also be the same length but the eyes on the A/B/C are 10mm and I'm pretty sure the N and later models all use 8mm. Now what was the question  :-\

So what are you thinking Bill? Are ya looking at building up a bike with different shocks?
