similiar to stock shocks....
over-haul it... you will get back stock shocks comfy ride + some stiffness of new shafts and seals and valves.

if your pocket is thick enough. HKS shocks are comfy.... hybermax if i'm not wrong. (is hypermax an exhaust?)

Hipermax is pretty competition, they won't be as comfy

Yeah I actually want Rolls Royce ride quality... anyone?? hehe...

What I am actually looking for is a softer ride for our Malaysia road conditions. The uneven, pot holed, rough and debri condition. So it won't be over bumpy as in clanking when you go over these roads. U know what I mean rite. We don't have much long smooth straights in Jaybee haha, damn ulu...

punch a hole in your absorbers... and u're running on springs only.. that's confirm u'll have alot of smoothness.. :P

by looking at hipermax... their spring diameter are comparatively SMALL.... even TEIN's type flex is slightly larger than it.

the coil diameter has a direct relation with the K value of the spring.

the absorbers are critical if the springs are soft enough.
