Many years ago I replaced the rear shocks on my standard with I/S.  Looks like I may have one starting to leak a bit of oil.  I do not have the old standard shocks any more.  I believe the I/S shocks are slightly larger in diameter, Right?, or how do I tell.     Just want to make sure I get the right ones (used) as I need the extra capacity for two up riding.   Some of you have changed to Progressives or triked.  If you  have a set in good shape and are willing to part with them let me know.

I don't think there is any external visual differences between a Standard/Tourer shock & the I/S. I also think the part # on the sticker will have MBY in it if it is an Interstate shock. If it has no part # sticker I have no idea how to tell the diff. ???

I have a set that I got from Willow here last year.
In great shape.
I just put in new urethane bushings too.
I find for me one up they are too stiff.
Since your local shipping shouldn't be too bad.
Hows $79 plus shipping sound??

Let me know.
I cant get them to you before Friday unless you want to pay a UPS Stores higher shipping costs.
