This is a set of skies that I got from Bender Racing several years after the 540 project was long over. I just happen to call them the same day that they had cleaned out their upstairs of all the old 540 parts. These skies are exactly like the stock 1983-540 ski, Yamaha simply stamped them out of aluminum rather than steel. Bender only had a few sets built for him. I had these skies black anodized then painted black and then put an OEM decal on them. As you can see in the picture, they are very, very light. If I remember correctly this complete setup removed approx. 24 lbs.. The description of the shock delete kit is as follows: The machined aluminum piece slides up into the shock tower in place of the strut and you place the plastic cover back on the tower as if it still contained the strut. The lower strut is made of chrome moly and slides up into the aluminum part. These are very precision built parts and you won’t be disappointed with them. Call with any questions, Don9374089323
