Koni's Rule!

The adjustability is a great advantage, and it is possible to set the ride
"stiffness" to make it more comfortable on trips with your "Honey", or
stiffen it up for your next turn on the Autocross Pad.

Spring for the top of the line, and you can adjust the ride without having
to remove the shock.

Your MMV.
