Can anyone tell me the proper length for the rear shock absorbers for these bikes? I have a 1967 G15CS and I see 12.9" and 13.4" variously listed for G15's.

Thanks,
Ed
 
I can tell you mine are 13-3/8''. I don't have the original shocks near me but I seem to remember taking a measurement before ordering these. Also, I got them from Feked classic bike parts in the UK.
 
The ones on my scruffy old G15 chassis measure 13-1/2" fully unloaded (extended).

Must be 13.4"
 
Thank you Bernhard and Grandpaul.

Bernhard, the N15 and G15 used an AMC chassis and the shocks associated with them have different part #'s from the featherbed Nortons. The various iterations of the G15, i.e. CS, CSR and Mark II had different part #'s among themselves.
