Wilbers shock absorber - BMW R12 G/S - Type 643 Competition
Product information "Wilbers shock absorber - BMW R12 G/S - Type 643 Competition"
Wilbers shock absorber with compression & rebound adjustment for BMW R12 G/S
The BMW R12 G/S definitely comes with a good suspension from the factory. However, this is of course not ideal (which suspension systems never are ex works, as a top-functioning suspension strut must always be customised to the rider's needs and weight).
Recommendation: If you want a really great working suspension in your G/S and absolutely top performance, the Competition shock absorber is the right choice for you.
It also makes sense to replace the shock absorber if you would like to lower or raise your R12 G/S a little (for visual or technical reasons)
Each shock absorber is specially manufactured to customer order, perfectly matched. The delivery time is therefore approx. 10 - 20 working days.
The shock absorbers come with ABE for your motorbike (so they do not have to be registered with the TÜV).
About the shock absorber
The Wilbers Type 643 Competition QS shock absorber is a high-quality high-end shock absorber with all adjustment/individualisation options:
- Compression adjustment (in high & low speed)
- Rebound adjustment
- Equalising reservoir
The spring preload (which is of course preset to suit) is infinitely adjustable.
The rebound and compression stages can be adjusted in 22 clicks using the rotary knob.
Radial pistons, wet running guide & Teflon-guided self-aligning bearings ensure fine response behaviour.
For possible accessory variants, see further down in the description.
Height adjustment (optional)
The height adjustment allows you to adjust the length of the shock absorber by + / - 5mm via a thread.
Attention: only limited use with lowering

Hydraulic spring preload (Wilbers-PA)
The hydraulic Wilbers PA allows you to adjust the spring preload very quickly and conveniently. This allows you to adjust the suspension very easily, e.g. for luggage payload or pillion operation.
A vehicle-specific bracket for the adjuster is included.
The adjustment can be adjusted by 10 mm with the PA.
Customised to you
In order to be able to customise the shock absorber perfectly for you, we need the following information from you (please simply enter this in the comments field at the end of the ordering process)
- Rider weight - (with motorbike clothing)
- Soizius weight
We only recommend that you take this into account if you regularly ride in pairs. Otherwise, we advise you to adjust the shock absorber perfectly for solo operation, as a shock absorber can only be optimally adjusted to one weight. - % Share of frequency WITH pillion operation
- Luggage weight
Here we recommend the same as for pillion operation - % proportion of frequency WITH operation with luggage
- Setting of the shock absorber: Comfortable / Standard (our recommendation) / Sporty
- Purpose: Race track / road / off road
R12 G/S
The G/S comes from the factory with a fairly long chassis, which suits the look of the bike and also fits the concept of the bike. The basic length is therefore initially very well chosen.
If you want to emphasise the off-road look even more, you can make the suspension strut a little longer, which makes the motorbike a little higher.
For riders who are not so tall and have problems getting their feet on the ground, we recommend ordering the shock a little shorter.
