In series production, the shock absorber of the Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Factory KG has noticeably too much rebound damping. The Wilbers shock absorber has been optimised in rebound and compression damping. Thus, it also offers a larger adjustment range than the shock absorber installed ex works.
This way Wilbers achieves a clearly improved handling, which considerably increases driving safety.
All experiences and developments of our racing team flow directly into the individual adjustment of the shock absorber. So you get a real race replica shock absorber from Wilbers!
Ex works the fork is built with linear fork springs. The Wilbers solution also relies on linear fork springs, but with variable gradations depending on the rider’s weight, intended use or – when used on the race track – the weather.
Depending on the intended use, we recommend SAE5 or GP5 fork oil, whereby the GP5 variant is particularly suitable for use on the race track.
With the Wilbers conversion, the negative spring travel and the response behaviour are optimised for this.
The basic edition of the Wilbers Adjustline mono shock absorber comes along with the same technology as the more complex versions. The difference is that here we leave out the compression reservoir and thus the options for adjusting high- and low-speed compression. Nonetheless this shock absorber does not make any compromises concerning response behavior or durability. The radial piston, wet run, teflon guided self-aligning bearings and other features redefine the quality of a standard shock. Like usual the spring preload can be continuously tuned and the rebound can be set over an open-bleed system in 22 clicks. The shock absorber can be retrofitted with many other Wilbers accessories.
