Yep. The shocks came off an '02 T-Sport that was being parted out on eBay. Also got the brakes from it.

The 99 didn't get all the adjustable suspension goodies or the dual-caliper brakes like yours.

Seriously - I'm having fun with this and it's been a great way to learn how to work on the bike. The support and encouragement of my friends here has been great!

After a quick run into town on the VFR to pick up a 3/8" torque wrench, I finished torquing on the new shocks. Checked the tire pressure, and headed out for a short 25 mile loop.

Initial impressions are that the rear felt more stable, more planted than it did with the previous shocks.
