My new Koni 82 series shocks went OK on the CSR this year. Probably because I travelled so slow that they never warmed up. :) I did see blown shocks on other vehicles driven at insanely high speeds.
The Koni 88 and 90 suit raised height vehicles and are VERY expensive and will not fit my standard height cruiser. I read the 88 and 90 come into their own driving at competition type speeds and do not do much at normal driving speeds. The 82 series supposedly were better for that.
Final choice for me came down to Toughdog big
bore, as recommended by Mick O, or the Koni 82s. I went for the Koni more to do with local supply factors than anything else.
Doing it again, taking into account the success of the Toughdogs on Mick's heavy rig, I would give Toughdogs a try because of their easier adjustment. The adjustment capability of Konis is really a one off at fitment time and that's it.
I really don't go much for the OME recommendations but that is my personal attitude.
