Default K1-kyosho shocks?

I heard from a couple of people that the k1 runs nicely with kyosho shocks on it. Can anyone shed some light on this and is it true?

K1 ones perfectly fine with standard shocks, just make sure to get core springs and vented shock caps

Bound to work. I think any decent shock that fits will.

I got yokomo shocks working awesome on a b44 for example. Took a while though.

the guy who runs one at our club has kyosho shocks fitted, goes ok, but I think he uses them as he has all the springs pistons left from his kyosho days, thus made use of what he has.

Also you lose the benefit of copying team set ups. If you got some id use though. Silky smooth.
