I would go with the Koni & Ahmed combo...

Had them on my 500... gave a real nice ride, set the Konis to the softest setting, worked real well.

I got the springs through Duncan & Bob at Automotive Unlimited.

Euan,

Talk to the gaybird. Ahmed/Leda springs give only the slightest drop which is hardly noticable, but they are a very good spring, when coupled wiht Koni Dampers
