shock absorber type 540 Road

The KTM 890 Adventure | R2 Adventure has linear fork springs as standard. However, these fork springs in this motorbike give the feeling of becoming softer, for example, when braking. As a result, the vehicle appears unharmonious and loses stability at the expense of riding safety.
Wilbers uses progressive, stiffer springs that give much better feedback and thus increase safety.

KTM uses a relatively hard spring on the rear shock, which hardly compresses at all in potholes and bumps, despite the enormous suspension travel of 200mm.
A softer spring with adjusted rebound and compression damping noticeably increases comfort in addition to driving safety and stability.

The suspension geometry on front and rear axle is sensibly adjusted by the Wilbers solution. As standard, the vehicle has slightly too little negative spring travel, so the Wilbers strut is a little longer, while the seat height remains the same.


Ecoline 540 Mono Road Ø 46 mm The well priced alternative. Stepless adjustable spring preload by using the included spanner tool. With the radial-piston and the progressive shim-package you’ll always get the optimal damping. High-quality, maintenance-free spherical plain bearings bearings promise long and healthy life. 7 years warranty with ABE.
