General description

CLU – the link between street and racing. This high-performance shock absorber is dedicated to street and sport motorcycles. This is a gas-assisted shock absorber, with a separation piston for oil/nitrogen in the balance tank, Ø16mm piston rod with anti-friction coating and a friction-minimised bushing. The lower and upper mounting are made from an aluminium alloy, as used in aviation – precisely CNC machined. The setting of the spring preload is hydraulic and can be adjusted manually or by a 14 mm HH screw.

The balance tank is separated from the housing to allow for better positioning on the vehicle and to optimise hydraulic oil cooling. They are connected by a flexible, steel-braided hose. The shock absorber improves feedback from the bike and increases grip and comfort.

The last digit in the shock absorber’s designation indicates the colour of the spring: ‘1’ stands for a red spring, while shock absorbers with the suffix ‘2’ have a black spring. For example, the shock absorber ‘CLU31’ has a red spring, ‘CLU32’ consequently a black one.
