I went with Eibach Pro-Kit, the drop was minimal on the stock sport suspension. The ride is just right.
I ordered the Eibach's also.

Bikemike vent for Eibach's and is very pleased.

i have heard the H&R's are a bit rougher ride with more of a drop and the Eibach's drop less but have a bit of a stock ride quality. I just ordered 20's for my 05 645 vert and will decide if I will lower it when I get them installed and see how much gap there is.
So if anyone has pics with either springs, please post some pics so that we can see the differences if there are any.
I just noticed Ive been lurking in here since September 2007 and this is my 1st post.
