Exclamation Thunk thunk noise in rear of 951 resolved

Well, I swapped out my one year old KYB gas-adjust (hardey-har) shock absorbers today that adorned the rear suspension of Sparky, put in some Koni yellows. Guess what? The thunk is gone. The left shock has some grunchiness. One year old, never tracked or abused.

KYB: never again.

Oh, and Sparky loves the new shocks. Nice ride and better control through the twisty bits. I'm a believer. Fronts as soon as the Exchequer permits.
