Fast forward 1.5 years and ZRX1200 is now gone b/c I was too busy riding the GS's to ride it and came across this deal and couldn't pass it up. So here we go again.

So first major snag. PO told me he had title. Bike gets here; no title. Talk to PO who says yeah he thought he had put it in his name but wasn't sure. Now PO (who is in Washington and I'm in Texas) won't respond to voice or email messages. Beautiful. So here we go with a ****ing title issue. Sigh.........

Ok it appears that the title situation has been solved. Got ahold of Washington DMV. Title had been transferred to PO but they had his address wrong and couldn't get it to him. Being sent to him and he will sign over to me a mail it. One crisis averted.
Next problem is that both gsxr wheels are bent . I think he got these from Katman but that was back in '07. No telling what they have been through or if they are even the same rims. So if anyone knows of a good set of straight GSXR750/1100 rims for a good price let me know!

Ok new set of GSXR1100 wheels sourced. Next problem. Got a set of Ohlins locally. Who here can tell me the problem? Hint: it is not that they are eye/eye or wrong length; Ohlins can provide clevis's of any size. It's a little more sudtle.

Looks like the shaft on the right one is a bigger diameter. Also looks slightly bent, but that could just be the photo. Also the section just above the lower eye looks different.The Three Horsemen

Looks like a fun project Russ.
Regarding those shocks, hope you aren't going to say something silly like the decal is on the wrong side. As far as eyelets on both sides is concern, this shouldn't be a problem since you will be modding the swingarm anyway and can put whatever kind of mount on it you want.Ed

Joe had it right all along (I had told him on the phone). They are both RIGHT SIDE shocks!!!!!!!! Hell I just assumed they were the same but each piggyback is angled. Each side is obviously angled in opposite directions. I am trying to get ahold of Ohlins to see if I can rectify the problem without having to buy one side (probably can't even do that-will have to buy set.)
