Wilbers forkfedern for Ducati Monster 696 12-

Product details

Wilbers forkfedern set, progressive, for Ducati Monster 696, Type M 5, model year 12- (fork oil please order separately), with ABE according to the application list

General description

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

For motorsport applications, we recommend the very lightweight 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 workpieces to be processed, such as Wilbers forkfedern, are placed together with an abrasive media specially tailored for this application in a vibrating container, known as a trough vibrator.

The vibrations of the container create a relative movement between the workpiece and the abrasive media, and through constant rubbing, lead to a smoothing of the componentupper surface. 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 for the viscosity of the fork oil 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 fork oil separately.
