KYB Suspension Shim Collection - Sold in Packs of 10

These genuine OEM Kayaba shims & washers can be used in all rebuildable motorcycle forks & shocks - learn more about one of the world's largest suspension companies in our KYB & Showa article. If you need to swap damping shims please see our Shim Factor Calculator - one 0.30mm shim is NOT the same as two 0.15mm shims.

Teknik's range isn't just standard valving shims either; we offer complete bulk kits for tuners, ring shims for those thin edge washers, check shims to support & space, cup washers to catch the edges of larger shims and valve stop washers to limit shim stack flex.

There are other shared parts found in both front forks & rear shocks; locknuts to hold damping pistons to base towers, teflon lined shaft collars or acetal rod bushes to hold sliding tubes concentric without too much friction, tiny mid-speed valve (also called refill or non-return) springs to help tune your shim stack, rubber o-rings to keep oil and gas pressure sealed from each other. Motorbike suspensions need these when servicing or tuning, and you can find them in our fork locknuts & bushes and shock absorber locknuts & bushes.

If you are a bike workshop or a DIY suspension tuner you should stock up on these basic essential wear parts - they are in everything and should be replaced every rebuild. We also have technical articles that can give you an edge: learn more about those lock nuts and fasteners or become an expert on oils with our suspension fluid weights table.
