Can anyone tell me the shock length from eye to eye on center and the length of the shock from end to end on their XB?I have a hair brain idea on a project(not an XB) that I need a shock for.I'm guessing that some models may vary in the rear shock length,so please let me know what bike the measurements are from.I'd also like to know if they are all the same length or not.Thanks for the help.

use the search button. I came up with 14.4" when searching once before. as far as length goes, it should work just fine on your X1 if you have the short shock bracket : ) I have no idea about valving etc...it might handle like crap....

STT - 14.25
X - 15.0
SS - 13.625
S - 14.0

Thanks for all of the replies.When I tried the search option I believe it told me that the website couldn't display the page I was looking for.I'm working on a HD project with a Timken style mono frame.A Firebolt shock was the first to catch my eye.I need to check the length and angle they run to see if it will work.Thanks again.
