Those are eye to eye, the GS uses eye to clevis. I have a pair of shocks en route. Thanks though.

GS 850 Front end on using Allballz conversion bearings. The tach is original with a custom aluminum housing and mount that I made myself. I have to re-adjust the angle.

I decided that i wanted rearsets like these Tarozzi's but needed to spend the funds on more important items. So, i figured i would attempt to make them.
