Wilber shocks

[Retired 2012]

Has anyone used this shock company, any info. Pro or con
saw a post from a guy in the general section but nothing here on this section
they have a rep in Scott's valley, ca and I can get them through him about the price of Elkas but a better warranty. Any info would be appreciated, thanks

Quite a few people on ADV RIDER website use them with great success... I personally used Ohlins on all my BMW GS' with the exception of the last three that had electronic suspension...

They make shocks for our F3's now so I wanted to know about their quality.
i know most here like Elkas but there are mixed feelings about them, some say their customer service is hit or miss and the quality is too. I don't have a personal opinion because I have never used either brand. Just trying to find the best for my buck.

Wilbers

There's a member on here who is going to do a video on the Wilbers.
He's had so many inquires about them.
Were are you looking to get your Wilbers from.
I found a dealer in Fla but since I'am closer to Cali?
Thanks

My experiance with Elka has been a home run but I went through Whit at Pittbull Powersports.. They were set up to my weight n the wife's plus luggage.. I'm very satisfied..

I have heard about Wilber's shocks from my Spyder customers in Germany (where the Wilber's shocks are made). According to them they are very expensive and very good shocks.

What kind of pricing do they have here in the states?

What I've found without calling a dealer!
Front 630 $599.00 to $1124.00 which remind me of ELKA stage 5's
Rear 641 $849 which reminds me of ELKA stage 4.
They have a hydraulic adjuster which you can adjust shock preload by just turning a know and don't have to mess with sickle spanner.

Called Len at Pitbull powersport

Well I had to make a tough decision but I need shocks so after reading a large number of post on this site, I followed the masses and called Len at PittBull. He recommended I get stage 2 Elkas front and rear. The rear one gets a hyd. adjuster. He also gave me a good price and shipped them for free, so thank you Len and thank all of you for your advise and assistance.
Thanks for this incredible forum as well, it allows for us to unite, inform and assist each other.
