Wilbers forkfork springs for Kawasaki ZZR 1400 06-

Product Details

Wilbers forkfork spring set, progressive, for Kawasaki ZZR 1400, type ZXT 40 A / ZXT 40 C, model year 06- (forkoil to be ordered separately), with ABE according to the application list.

General Description

Depending on the application, Wilbers offers progressive or linear forkfork springs, manufactured from the best and highest quality chrome-silicon steel. For touring and touring-sport, we generally recommend a progressive forkfork spring to optimise response and, on the other hand, increase bottoming resistance. Crucially, this involves the combination of "Zero Friction" forkfork springs with the specially developed Wilbers forkoil, as well as observing the correct air chamber for the respective vehicle. If desired, in special cases, an individual tuning can be achieved by changing the air chamber.
For motorsport applications, we recommend the very light linear chrome-silicon-forkfork springs 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 forkfork springs, are placed together with an abrasive body 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 body, and through constant rubbing, lead to a smoothing of the workpiece surface. At the end of the process, a fine, shiny surface is achieved.
For Wilbers forkfork springs, this reduction in surface roughness means a minimisation of friction = ZERO friction.

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

Note: please order the forkoil separately.
