Quality workmanship and the sound is perfect. 👌

Just an update. I've now replaced the front coils with Wilbers zero friction progressive fork springs. To be honest I didn't notice an immediate improvement like the Wilbers rear shock until I rode across undulations, and on back roads the fronts made the riding experience a whole lot easier...

Changed over from a R1250GS Adventure, to a R18 100 Year Anniversary. Absolutely no regrets. I knew it had a hard ride, so I changed the OEM rear shock with a Wilbur’s. Couldn’t be happier.

Good point Dave, I will ask next time I’m there.

Great ride today.

Correct, the preload was not set so I adjusted it myself (ex mechanic). It did improve the ride a lot. I later heard about Wilbers, and it has taken compliance and rebound to another level. That together with the Option 719 seat, and I’m a happy rider.

Picture with Wilbers +20mm installed. Headed out for my first decent ride (120klms) on the weekend and it was a 200% improvement Vs the demo I rode a few months ago. Along the same country road with bumps and dips. It drops about 15mm when hop on.

BTW your bike looks great!
