The Bilsteins will not be quite as harsh as the KYB's.  But the Boges will
indeed be the softest and most forgiving over bumps, as they are an oil
filled rather than a gas charged shock. On the other hand, performance will
suffer slightly in comparison to the Bilsteins (and to a lesser extent
perhaps even the KYB's), as they are somewhat less stiff than the gas
charged shocks.
