Just put a pair of B4,s on the rear of mine and its been a big improvement. :y
If you want adjustables, Spax used to be the people for them, but I dont know if they still are . :-/

Web site shows a wide range of specs for each level of shock.

Thanks Chris, very Helpful mate.

Mine are unlikely to be the adjustable ones in that case.

Thanks for your help.
