Shock Absorber Type 642 Competition
The Honda NT 1100 / SC84 comes with progressive fork springs where the first rate is too soft and the second too hard; a poor block value makes the second rate engage too quickly. Stock fork damping is also sub-optimal. Wilbers uses a slightly firmer initial rate with a softer, progressive second rate and optimizes the block value, resulting in a markedly better fork response.
The OEM shock’s progressive spring also has a poor block value, leaving the rider stuck in the overly stiff second rate. Combined with the progressive linkage, comfort suffers. Wilbers fits a linear spring and optimizes rebound and compression damping for maximum comfort. We also correct excessive negative travel by building the shock slightly shorter; thanks to the adjusted negative travel, seat height remains unchanged while handling and safety improve.
The ultimate shock configuration: a milled upper mount with integrated high-/low-speed compression adjusters (22 clicks each), a pressure-relief valve to prevent hydraulic blocking, 22-click external rebound adjustment, and stepless spring preload.
Product may vary from picture.
spring preload, compression and rebound damping adjustable. X-PA preload adjuster is recommended.

Perfect fit, perfect replacement for the factory Showa. 1993 BMW R100R rides like new again!
Very high-quality shocks. Pricing is reasonable for what you get. Super easy install. Highly recommend.
I tried two after market rear shocks on my‘23 Road Glide and wasn’t pleased at all with either set. My wife gave me an evil eye when I-told her I had ordered another set (3rd set) of shocks. About an hour into our first ride on the Wilbers she acknowledged the Wilbers were a huge improvement.
The shocks are very easy to install and make the ride as smooth as can be.
Fantastic upgrade that really improves the ride.
Can’t rave enough about the set-up! Two weeks after installation, I went on a 9 day ride from Staten Island NY to Key West FL and back, with various stops in between. The bike handled so smoothly, it was the best long ride i ever had. Never bottomed out either! I’ve been recommending the Wilber’s Nivomat suspension & EPM Performance to everyone I meet. Thank you.
What a great product. So much better than stock. Easy set up and go. No more 3 different adjustments.
