It's very important to remember that SHigSpeed suspensions *are* Ground
Control kits, just with the Nth degree more finish.  Theoretically, Scott
doesn't do anything to the *dampers* that another competent machinist
couldn't do with the right tools, a set of damper shells, Koni inserts,
and a GC sleeve kit.  In reality, though, Scott brings to the table
additional parts (mounts, especially), the ingenuity that it took to do
what he does and the experience of having done it before.  If you can
afford it, the SHigSpeed system is VERY hard to beat.

If I had a Classic, I'd just buy some Hyperco springs, some AGX dampers,
and a set of Progress bars.  Oh, and an Energy Suspension B13 master kit.
You can't compare that to a real suspension, but that's what *I'd* do.
With a B14, the only option is to at least get a GC coilover kit (um,
unless somebody knows something about Hyperco that I don't..).
