Old type Koni 1150.

Good stuff.

New type 1150 are also 'just' Yellows with thread on them (instead of sleeves).

Springs should be (close to being) linear.

I guess with the 2.5" spring adapter from Koni one could mount 2.5" springs and so on.

Rates bit stiffer than OE, nothing too harsh.

It appears those would fit EF indeed, when using the Integra arms and forks.

Knowing Koni there will only be Koni type numbers on the springs, not specifying rates.
