Shock Absorber Type 644 WESA Front
Combine a first-class motorcycle with the world’s best individually tuned suspension for an unmatched experience. The Honda GL1800 Gold Wing now features electronically adjustable front and rear shocks that adapt damping to the selected riding mode, with spring preload adjustable via a control knob.
Our WESA system, proven across many BMW models, refines this setup to match your weight, riding style, and preferences. Spring rate and damping characteristics are tailored to your data, offering finer mode-to-mode transitions — for example, softer damping in “Tour” and noticeably sportier behavior in “Sport.”
Original shocks must be sent in for coupling.
Notes:
- Recommendation for +20 mm raise: remove center stand to prevent rear-wheel contact when parked
- Approximate installation time: 12 hours
- Includes coupling (rear with partial hydraulic preload system); coupling available in Nordhorn or at certified Wilbers dealers
incl. Black Spring. To get a linkage to the Dynamic ESA-System you have to send in your original shock absorber. The additional cost is $129.
When rebuilding the ESA to WESA the functionality of the ESA adjustments remains completely intact. Dynamic ESA Suspension.

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.
