Need a bit of help.

Have recently purchased a pair of aftermarket shocks for my 2018 non esa r1200gs adventure.

However the ones that arrived are incorrect and for a pre wc model due to a communication error

Has anyone got a set of standard gsa shocks for a wc model lying around off the bike either esa or non esa because I need some measurements for the company who are sorting out the shocks.

Front shock need overall length between the centre of the mounting eyes, also the width of the top and bottom eyes and the diameter of the top and bottom bolts

Rear shock again I need the overall length between the centres of the mounting eyes and the width of the bottom and top eyes. For these I know the mounting bolts are 12 mm.

Thanks in advance
 
I have a spare set from a LC in the garage. Give me a min and I find them and a tape
 
Rear
Center 2 center is 40cm
Top bracket width is 30.45mm
Bottom bracket width is 38.79mm

Front
38.6cm
Top 30.15mm
bottom 29.84mm

As for the bolt, there is a parts page on Max BMW's web site that has all the parts and should be able to tell you the size of the bolt.
FILLISTER HEAD WITH WASHER - M10X55-10.9 MK for the top
FIT BOLT - M10X52-10.9 MK for the bottom
