    Z1 Enterprises. Call them and tell them what you are trying to do.
    They will set you up.

              My progressives raised the bike a bit ( 412 zeries) by pushing down the swingarm a bit. They have more control through the range than the 30 year old originals. A little rough riding but the control is exceptional, especially on the crappy roads around here.
              1981 GS650G , all the bike you need
              1980 GS1000G Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely

                i am trying to ditch a pair of 12" ikon shocks - i got too high a spring rate (123/217, and i weigh 195 lbs). this sounds like it would be the perfect fit for you, and would allow me to replace them with a set of 13"s
