They are valved to match the rates of the spring, the style of driving, etc.

Is ride comfort affected by this?
Does it make the ride stiffer or is it the same ride quality of the HD's?

It could go either way depending on your use/desire.

Don't want to be a hijacker.. BUT:
What is the difference between Koni SA and DA? Do they both allow you to adjust the ride height? These are a "coil-over," correct? What kinds of adjustments are there for dampening?

SA = single adjustable DA = double adjustable - The adjustments are damping and damping+rebound, respectively (I believe).

Koni shocks are not a coil-over. You would need to look to Ground Control or LG for that.
