Default I failed...

So researched a lot up on konis, but for some reason i really messed up here, and what a dumb mistake.

Ordered it from a vendor, and i found out the one i have is only 5 levels of adjustability, assuming the regular ones.

Now what i wanted to know is that is there a huge difference or is more levels of adjustability really needed??
Is it really that bad compared to sp3/race etc, can anyone tell me???
I got it for the normal price the 5 level adjustables ones btw. But just wondering if i should return and upgrade... thanks

Are you talking about perch settings? Normal Koni Sport shocks have 2 perch settings for the front shocks, and 3 rear settings. The Neuspeed versions have 5 settings all around and the droop limiter on the shock piston.

yeah, youre mistaken and confused about something.

the shock rebound is adjustable without any tick marks between full soft and full hard, so they say its "infinitely" adjustable.

the height adjustment perches have 2-5 "levels", or positions, as patrick explained. if you have the neuspeed ones, theyre pretty much the same as regular koni yellows. really no difference, just more perch settings and a droop limiter internally that really does nothing.

what is it that youre tripping about?
