Product details

Wilbers fork spring set, progressive, for Kawasaki ZX-12R Ninja, type ZXT20 AB, model year 02- (please order fork oil separately), with ABE according to the application list.

General description

Depending on the application, Wilbers offers progressive or linear fork springs, manufactured from the best and highest quality chrome-silicon steel. For touring and touring-sport, we generally recommend a progressive fork spring to optimise the response behaviour and, on the other hand, to increase bottoming-out reserves. Crucially, combine the "Zero Friction" fork springs with the specially developed Wilbers fork oil and observe the correct air gap for the corresponding vehicle. If desired, individual adjustment can be achieved in special cases by changing the air gap.
For motorsport applications, we recommend the very light linear chrome-silicon fork springs from Wilbers, which were co-developed by the motorsport team.

"ZERO friction" friction reduction through vibratory finishing:
During vibratory finishing, the components to be processed, such as Wilbers fork springs, are placed together with an abrasive media specifically tailored for this purpose in a vibrating container, known as a trough vibrator.
The vibrations of the container generate a relative movement between the workpiece and the abrasive media, and through constant rubbing, lead to a smoothing of the componentupper. At the end of the process, a fine, shiny surface is achieved.
For Wilbers fork springs, this reduction in surface roughness means a minimisation of friction = ZERO friction.

Each fork spring set includes a recommendation for the viscosity of the fork oil and the height of the air gap in the fork. These values have been determined by experienced Wilbers technicians and ensure optimal riding comfort and feedback at the front wheel.

Note: please order the fork oil separately.
