Wilber Suspension

[AndyCam]

I have just purchased a Wilber rear suspension unit for my 03 GSA, fitting looks to be no problem, however - - the instructions for setting up ride height, pre-load and damping are all in German. Anyone set one up and can assist?

 

[Blackal]

I think they are pronounced "Vilbers"

Does that help any?

i know triton63uk has just recieved his wilbers and they set them up for him and all you do is bolt them on to the bike you could pm him and ask for the setting they used on his ?

Spanner???? Aaaah not the lump hammer and cold chisel I have been using, oooer where's the Araldite?

Andy, be sure to compare the length of the new units with the originals. The first set that Wilbers sent me was incorrect and I didn't find out until I'd fitted them and had to take them back off

 

[Timbo]

Got my instructions in English - not sure if these will help...

 

[triton63uk]

[AndyCam]

Thanks guys for the "destructions" in English, I now have lump hammer, chisel and old worn out adjustable wrench ready to fit said unit

Andy,

Sorry I missed you on Sunday - Jane is going to compare your German instructions with the sets from Triton63uk and Timbo to make sure that there are no glaring difference that will affect the setup of your unit, and she'll get back to you later today.

Cheers matey, I was up in Glenlivet sorting out heating!!! I hear Jane enjoyed her lunch

 

[The Stimulator]

Andy,

Just to let you know that Jane has checked the German version, and the instructions posted on here by Triton63uk and Timbo are the same as the ones for your shock.

I guess I'll struggle even more to keep up with you now...

Cheers Ian and thank Jane for me, will fit it hopefully today. It's the super hard version, especially built for Fat Ba**ards like what I am

Fitted a Wilbers to the rear of my 1150 last year. The setup was perfect straight from the box.

Haven`t tried it two up yet,
