The link was similar to this http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/1960s-to-1980s-Classic-Triumph-BSA-and-British-Bike-12-5-325mm-shocks-/331251620778?pt=AU_Motorcycle_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4d20229baa

Same Aussie seller I got my 325mm shrouded shocks from. He has raised the price of the shocks by a bit now

Thanks all, I will keep my eye out for something along those lines. Scotty, happy to help, let us know how those work out. If they don't, send them my way :-)

Got the Emgo shocks installed this morning.  I was skeptical because they are only 2" wide and very skinny compared to stock, tho they are listed for a Triumph 650.  I offered $40 and he accepted.  When I first installed them I put the preload on the 3rd notch and I couldn't even get the suspension to compress.  So I lowered to the first notch and they feel really good.  Only issue is that the extra 1/2" makes the center stand barely touch.  So I'm going to weld some pieces of pipe to the bottom of the AVL stand I purchased over the summer until it's the correct height.

For folks wondering, the seller Scotty got those from listed them as this Emgo part#: 17-05590

Spring rate listed in the catalog as 110#.

I'm 240, and doing ok with the stocks so far, set on max preload, with about 5000 miles on them. They actually seem a bit harsh, but that doesn't bother me, no farther than I ride. Longer shocks and I couldn't get my leg over the seat.

Be very careful with cheap shocks. A few years ago, I was given a dilapidated old Goldwing. I decided to fix it up. On the cheap. The rear air shocks no longer held air, and were too rusty to repair. Decent Progressive air shocks cost over $300, so I bought a pair of cheap non air shocks for $100 off eBay. Uninstalled they were the same length as the stock ones. But after getting them installed, I noticed the bike sat too upright on the sidestand. The first speedbump I hit bottomed the rear fender against the tire. Basically $100+ shipping+ labor wasted.
