Unusual Progressive 1207 Shocks and Springs

Got these old shocks some years back, and am thinking they might work on my bike.

Any suggestions? I believe they are an older model than what is offered now.

:whistle:

They look like S&W's. I had some on my bike. They're good shocks. To bad the rods were rusted and pitted, I'd be using them now.

I thought S&W shocks always had yellow adjusters like the ones I had on my KZ650. Ed

No brand name, but 1207 G, and Made in Mexico are stamped on them along with a couple other things.

All insights are welcome.
