Need a measurement, anyone have a stock rear shock laying around?

I need in cm the length from the center of one bolt hole to the other. I tried doing it on mine but its a pain in the ass with the shock on the bike...

I'm trying to see if I can get a GSXR750 shock fitted, my suspension is beat to ****.

IIRC - It is 320mm. The GSXR shock I put on mine was slightly shorter at 315mm and lowered my rear by 12mm.

The other end of the tape measure is lined up with the center of the top hole to show the eye-to-eye length. 12-11/16" works out to ~322mm.

It was a breeze. The hardest part for me was finding the proper bolts/spacers and drill. The actual drilling of the shock was uneventful and installation took me about a half an hour.

The difference in ride was priceless...lol
