It's important to compare it with another one. The owner's manual may have the stock shock settings. From there you can go softer.

The Eibach spring set will fix the early Talon R. It is so soft that you have to connect the sway bar. It overcomes the stock stiff damping.

The non threaded bodies on the Showa shocks is a real head scratcher. I get that Honda was having supply issues with Fox but it's like they didn't even try to come up with anything similar and just went with the cheapest option. Pretty sad...
