HD Billys
In my 7 years of W123/C123 and S124/A124 ownership I've only installed HD Billys.
Zero regrets. They are fantastic, and my experience has been just as Nate andDiseasel describe.
I've driven W123s with non-HDs. My experience there is also as Diseasel describes.

The HD's *DO NOT* make the ride harsh. Anyone who claims they do must have an ass made of glass. I've run HD's on both of my 126's and wouldn't run anything else. They glide over even the crappiest potholed, rutted, washboarded roads and handle so much better on the winding bits. Everyone who rides in my car comments on how smooth and comfortable it is.
