82 GS1100E Rear Shocks

[Anonymous]

Does anyone know where I can get some inexpensive NEW rear shocks for my 82 GS1100E?

I know Progressive are the best, but can't justify the cost based on the amount of riding I have the time to do.

Thanks,
Daryn

JC Whitney has shocks for your bike for $79.98 a pair. I guess they might be better than nothing, but I wouldn't bet on it. But they're new and inexpensive.

the 83 gs1100E i bought says progressive on the springs do i have the progressive shocks you speak of? im not sure what the stock units look like

[Jeff Tate]

The stock shocks had a damping collar around the top of the shock body numbered 1-5. Progressives don't have this. I can't tell for sure without seeing them or at least a better description. Sounds like you have Progressive something though.

Is that $159.00 each, or a pair ? How much are the springs ?

That is for a pair of shocks, then you need the springs at $63.03 for a pair. Grand total for a pair of shocks is $222.13.

Do you guys know if the 81 came with progressive style fork springs? The tops of my fork springs are wound tighter than the bottoms (not by much) and seeing as I have progressive rear shocksI was thinking I have a new pair up front too.
