Just about to buy some springs for the touring. Just can't decide what to do on the drop front.
The setup is going to be:
Bilstein B6 front dampers
Koni Sport rear dampers
Racing Dynamics ARB front & rear
Obviously the M50 donk up front.
Was thinking of a 40/40 drop but then spotted that they do 60/50 as well as 55/35.
Can you kind folks post some pics of your tourings and state what the drop is so I can decide. I'm torn between 40/40 and 55/35 to be honest. I fancy a bit of rake but this thing has to handle well and I do need to clear about 40 speed humps a day lol.
