Like this... these are richards housings with Koni 8610's in them.

The two caveats with this setop (IMO) are lack of separate lower perch adjustability, and the clunking issue due to unloading and reseating.

The rears can go pretty low, and with the right spring length you will have pretty good adjustability out back. As for the clunking, I live in a pretty rough area and never hear clunking, even over uneven railroad tracks at speed, so I just don't see this as being an issue.

If you REALLY want to do something about it, just install a tender spring and be done with it.
