NEED 82 R100rs Rear shocks

I need a set of gently used OEM ONLY rear shocks for 1982R100rs LWB. If I have my ducks in a correct row here, they should be 13 1/2" from center to center of the eyelets.
I have found lots of 13"s and 13 1/4" but very few 13 1/2".

The reason is to get the machine back to 100% complete stock configuration.
Not interested in aftermarket solutions and Bob's Replica look alikes are only 13". Not what I need.

If I ever find what I need......I'll have a nice pair of 13" Koni's coming off for sale or trade.

From what I've heard & read so far.....nearly everyone says that the oem Boge shocks are "poor" at best. And I hear that everyone takes them off. If that is so, wouldn't one agree that there should be at least one available set of the OEM takeoffs laying on a dusty shelf in someone's barn?

This is a very nice machine with only 25,000 original miles on it so I need a pair with little or no rust that will clean up well.

I'm appreciative of any help you could give.

Thanks, IBJMAN
