1 Way Adjustable Replacement Motorcycle Shock Absorbers

When most riders talk performance the first thing they think of is POWER - but if you're smart, that's the last on the list. Shoving grunt into a chassis that can't cope builds a scary bucking bronco. First steps are basics - make sure your bike is properly maintained, clean, no leaks, fresh oil, good clutch setup. Remove any extra weight. Fit grippy tyres. You've got the perfect starting point! Quality suspension comes next & Teknik Motorsport are motorcycle suspension tuning experts.

Stock rear shocks are engineered to a cost, so only serious sports & offroad bikes feature factory damping adjustment. Very basic coilovers don't have customisable spring preload or may not be built for servicing at all. You'd be amazed what our performance modifications can achieve - plus how much cheaper tuning can end up - our OEM based dampers have won racing championships. But sometimes it isn't cost effective putting that time into developing a compromised design.

These complete aftermarket replacement coilovers are the most competitively priced options & usually an emulsion shock absorber type. A single knob adjusts both compression & rebound damping, linked together. They're a quick & easy bolt in upgrade for any DIY garage mechanic, and when the reliable suspension parts eventually wear out, all consumable internal components can be repaired to new by a workshop without any specialist machining, saving money & resources.

A big upgrade over manufacturer parts, these tuneable shock absorbers allow riders improved braking, safety, comfort & traction on any terrain.

However, the most consistent smooth handling, confident stability & precision control require the optimal soft or firm settings - so if you crave more fine adjustability, a more advanced 2 way adjustable shock has separate clickers for comp & reb, while a premium quality 3 way adjustable shock also allows skilled tuners to customise high & low speed comp pressures split separately - the ultimate in racing monoshock customization.

Watching racing videos, do the winners look like they're being kicked around? That circuit star can lean further, without braking dive, sailing over cornering bumps that push you off line. That motocross hero hooks up on the loosest dirt surface, turns quicker after landing jumps, floats over whoops that rattle you roughly. Are they more skilled? Maybe. But their motorbike is predictable & controlled, giving confidence to push grip further & time to concentrate on faster laps.

Tuned suspensions aren't just for the track though. Riding on potholed tarmac or offroad trail adventures improves too - a smooth ride, comfortable saddle no longer absorbing corrugations & vibration, longer endurance. Keeping safe tyre contact with the road under all conditions gives more grip & acceleration.

So now you've built up some skills & experienced riding a competent bike, how about setting up your gearing for better lap times & ridability? You're finally ready to turn up the wick with a screaming tuned engine & a blasting aftermarket muffler - but have a think about it first.
