Whats your spending bracket look like?

I installed one just like this one on my GS about a month ago, http://www.ebay.com/itm/R6-Shock-Suspension-Spring-Dogbone-08-09-10-11-12-Yamaha-R6R-/251373738097?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3a870ad871&vxp=mtr (http://www.ebay.com/itm/R6-Shock-Suspension-Spring-Dogbone-08-09-10-11-12-Yamaha-R6R-/251373738097?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3a870ad871&vxp=mtr), $76.49 "BUY IT NOW"

Well, I would like to pay a little less. But I get paid in two weeks and I may just order this one. My stock shock is blown.

Okay check this one out ...

I'm on EBAY all day..... I also found this one for $39.99 including shipping. Says it is off of an '06 with low mileage, http://www.ebay.com/itm/2006-2007-Yamaha-R6-Rear-Shock-Yzfr6-R6R-With-Linkage-/261327226279?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3cd85105a7&vxp=mtr (http://www.ebay.com/itm/2006-2007-Yamaha-R6-Rear-Shock-Yzfr6-R6R-With-Linkage-/261327226279?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3cd85105a7&vxp=mtr).

I could not tell if this one had the correct mount on the bottom. I already bought a red springed R6 shock by mistake last month that had an "eye" on each end.

It seems to be the right one check out my recent thread ...

Again, the shock is exactly like the one I just installed so it should work.
