Motorcycle Shock Tuning Kits & Upgrade Parts

That improved dampening system needs to stay in range, so garage tuners & professional mechanics alike need spring pre-load adjustment. We cover all options - lightweight compact mechanical preload adjusters to adjust inside tight trellis frames using a socket, hydraulic preload adjusters for fine tuning sag height by the side of the road without tools, or electronic preload adjusters where your BMW factory ESA computer customizes coil slack on the go.

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 loosest dirt, 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.
