Understandably the 160s standard dampers and springs are a compromise between road and track. Compared with the adjustables is the standard setup somewhere in the middle of the hard-2-soft range or biased one way more than the other?

The standard are a little bit smoother than the adjustable one in middle position. I only say "a little bit"...

ALWAYS go for adjustables if you can stretch to it. Then you can have propoer soft suspension on the road and have your spine remain intact, and proper hard suspension on track and go round corners quickly!
