We're replacing my stock springs this week with new H&Rs (would love to see pics if you have any handy) . I have the Alta 22mm bar and 16" F1 GS-D3s. My car has 45,000 miles.

Anyone swap out the stock shocks with new ones along with H&R springs? If so, big difference? I'll probably have to change mine out in the not-too-distant future anyway.

 

i have koni's with my H&R's and i love it. Amazing what you can do with the adjustments. I have almost no body roll, and when adjusted right, my car dips down into the apex upon throttle lift. Just how i wanted it for the twisty mountain roads. Definitely worth the money. (www.shox.com has the best koni price)

My stock struts only lasted about 8 months with my H&Rs on...then they got a little less firm (they were 2.2 years old at that time and were the old 2002 model, stiffer struts from before they changed for comfort reasons)

 

hey rallymini, what's your setting on your konis, i have them pretty soft, and was wondering how stiff you are on the track and street?

 

I have mine pretty stiff, and be warned that its not exactly a luxury ride.

Right now i'm experimenting with 1/2 turn back from full stiff on all 4. Usually i have the fronts a little less stiff....but im just testing.

Randy webb suggest 1/2 from full on the rears to begin with i believe
