The answer is yes to both questions. However, If you are building a sport bike which you want to handle well, you want to keep the ass as high as you can. The GS swingarm is quite a bit longer and the mounts are set way back. This means that if you use the original GS shocks the ass will be quite low. Much lower than the stock position. This would be nice for a bike which is intended to go in a straight line. The Lead Wing shocks are 14" long and will raise the tail to just a smidgen over the stock height. The ones I put on my bike are made by Progressive and are part #12-1205B They come without springs, and you have to pick the springs you want, dependent on color and stiffness. I bought mine at Bikebandit.com. If anyone of you want a set of GS shocks, I bought a set of good used ones to put on this bike which I did not use because I did not like the low rear. They can be yours for what I paid for them. That was $75. They are complete and they are Chrome. Postage would be about $12 anywhere in the lower 48.

how about to the upper 12? i'm interested i can't find any up here.
Let me see how much the postage would be for the "Great White North" I would declare customs at $20 so you would not have to pay any. What is your postal code? If you wish you can email me; otto@condormodels.com
