those are triple rates with piggy backs. they look to be in pretty good condition. I and everyone else will advise that you have these rebuilt to your specs.

what exactly did you want to know?

If  the springs are right for your weight and just need valved and setup for you id say good deal. Probably only cost a lil over 200 to get them setup. I had to replace all the springs on mine and setup for my riding style was 460. Mine turned out great.

A lot depends on what they are sprung and valved for, but I'd say a good deal. I bought the same shocks new back in the 90's(but remote rezzies instead of the piggyback like those) and paid about 860ish(the piggyback rezzies were slightly more). Good shocks, not the best, but pretty good. I've been happy with mine.
