My Z750L3 had shocks that looked the same as those as well, so could be Z750L3 or L4.

Spectre 750 or 1100?

Nah...just googled them and not like that at all.

If the spring was red it looks like they are off a GPz.

Do they look repainted?

They look very similar to a set I have which are KYB's. I can't find a pic though sorry. The top adjustment ring looks identical. Mine were from a z900 I think. They're aftermarket ones.

As per the comments above they are standard GPZ ones, they would not have been fitted as standard to a z900.
