Product information
Originally, the Harley Davidson Nighster RH975 had linear fork springs. These have been replaced by Wilbers with progressive springs, which gives a much better initial response and more reserve in the second spring rate.
The rear shocks are slightly underdamped, which makes it feel like you are riding solely on the spring.
This makes the handling very "spongy" and "imprecise". The Wilbers solution solves this problem.
In the series, linear springs are also mounted on the suspension struts. With our suspension struts we use progressive springs with a matching block value. This has the same positive effect as the fork springs.
In combination with optimised rebound and compression damping, the result is a significant gain in comfort. The vehicle rides much safer and more stable with the Wilbers conversion.
With the same seat height, we were able to increase the suspension travel from 76mm to 82mm. With the 10mm increase in height, the travel was even increased to 93mm!
The high quality Adjustline mono shock absorber was the inspiration for the Wilbers twin shocks. Here again only best components are integrated and because of our unit assembly system special-length or –requirements are no problem. Tunable in rebound, infinitely in spring preload, they are a top product with an ABE and 7 years warranty at an unbeatable price-/performance-ratio!
