I'm in the process of amassing the parts I need to put a GS1100 swingarm on my bike, and I was wondering if anybody had tried these shocks. They look purdy and all, but considering the low price, I'm wondering about reliability.

Whatever you buy, do not forget to consider shock length. Too long or too short will make a bad conversion!
Sorry, I do not know anything about those shocks.

Where did you end up getting your GS1100 swingarm at? I havent found anything in our area (Jersey county), and it seems all the swingarms on ebay are $100+. I've been wanting to do this mod as well!
There's your answer, I had to get mine off of ebay.
I got lucky and snagged a bin for $79.

Wonder what the quality are like, on some of the pictures they look almost like the old Øhlins, and if they (China somewhere?)have managed to copy everything exact, maybe they will do the job.:S
