Stock springs and Koni yellows

[Piff]

Anyone on here pair stock NA springs with those Koni yellows? Do the konis overwhelm stock (i.e., soft) springs? (Mine are 97 springs in case they had different spring rates.)

Regards.

If they are the Koni Sports (adjustable) they will be great.

For several years I had Koni yellows on my '94 with stock springs. I think they worked well together.

Before cone-cerned bought mine, I liked them too on my '93.

Ok, next question. I want to lower the ride height a little (maybe an inch?), but want to keep suspension travel. I'm not really in favor of shorter, stiffer springs, because it's a cruiser for me and the wife. I understand that NB tophats give a bit of lowering. However, I saw a thread by Modernbeat that said you had to enlarge the hole in the tophat because the Konis threaded shaft is 2mm larger. So could I just buy NB-specific Konis and not worry with it, or do the NA springs and NB tophats/shocks not work together?

Regards.
