I don't know what "default" means to you. The presence of precession has 
to do with the presence and direction of an external torque.

The phrase "their state" is too loose. If you mean that the change in 
angular momentum is reduced, the faster they spin, the answer is no. If 
you mean that the rate of precession is decreased, the answer is yes.
