Wilbers fork springs for BMW F 800 R 15-

Product Details

Wilbers forkfedern set, linear, spring rate 9.0 kg/cm, for BMW F 800 R, Type E 8 ST, model year 15- (forköl please order separately), with ABE according to the application list

General Description

Depending on the application, Wilbers offers you progressive or linear forkfedern, manufactured from the best and highest quality chrome-silicon steel. For touring and touring-sport, we generally recommend a progressive forkfeder to optimise responsiveness and, on the other hand, to increase bottoming resistance. Crucially, the combination of the "Zero Friction" forkfedern with the specially developed Wilbers forköl, as well as observing the correct air chamber for the corresponding vehicle, is very important. If desired, individual tuning can be achieved in special cases by altering the air chamber.

For motorsport applications, we recommend the very light linear chrome-silicon-forkfedern from Wilbers, which were co-developed by the motorsport team.



"ZERO friction" friction reduction through vibratory finishing:

During vibratory finishing, the componente to be processed, such as Wilbers forkfedern, are placed together with an abrasive medium specially designed for this purpose in a vibrating container, known as a trough vibrator.

The vibrations of the container create a relative movement between the workpiece and the abrasive medium and, through constant rubbing, lead to a smoothing of the componentupperfläche. At the end of the process, a fine, glossy surface is achieved.

For Wilbers forkfedern, this reduction in surface roughness means a minimisation of friction = ZERO friction.



Each set of forkfedern includes a recommendation regarding the viscosity of the forköl and the air chamber height 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 forköl separately.
