    Anyone recognize these shocks?

    Saw a pic of these in some file img on the internet. All it say is they fit a gs1100 82-83 but I don't know who they are made buy but love the way they look. Any ideas? Thanks,
    Sorry about the small pic

              Wow...tell me you love them. Pardon my ignorance but tell me what makes them so good. Why are they so much better then say Progressives at around $275
              Thanks,

                ?hlins don't compromise much. Never have. They also have a very good rebuild service.

                Plus, you know, they are a Swedish company. Naturally the product is excellent.

                And yes, I have them on mine as well.
