Sonor Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I have stock shocks on my RT. They only have about 15K on them as they are the second pair on the bike. My last R1100R had Ohlins shocks and they were very good, also very pricy. I have heard about HyperPro and do not know much about them. Are there other "high end" choices that you would recommend or would you stay with one of these two mentioned? BTW: My shocks are not computer controlled or linked. Link to comment
Guest Kakugo Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 To the best of my knowledge the shocks now available are Ohlins, Wilbers, Works Performance and Hyperpro. I personally have Wilbers and I am completely satisfied with them: you won't have problems with anything you choose. Link to comment
Chris K Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I have had Wilbers in the past and now have Hyperpro on my GS. I have been very satisfied with both. Link to comment
CoarsegoldKid Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I just found out that Race Tech has been taking stock ESA shocks from 2005 models and rebuilding, revalving, and respringing them retaining the ESA capability. You might want to contact them. Ohlins are on my RT they have been fine for me. I get them rebuilt about every 20-25K miles whether needed or not. Link to comment
g_frey Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 The life of my oem shocks is now at 110,000 miles and climbing. Yes they still work fine on my 1150RT. I have ridden my friends RT with new shocks and I can't tell the difference??? Link to comment
TF1200RT Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I have Wilbers on my 05 RT. Works well for me. Link to comment
tallman Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Contact Herman, ride down, ride back. Wilbers link to Wheels and Wings in Edgewater. Our dealership was a Wilbers dist. and Herman refreshed mine. Link to comment
