As a long-time motorcycle rider, police motor officer, and instructor, I've tested countless suspensions over the years on Harley-Davidson touring models. After all that experience, Wilbers Suspension stands far above the rest — and it’s not even close. (see video below)
If you’re a touring rider who values comfort, performance, and customization, Wilbers is not just an upgrade — it’s a game-changer.

Why Stock Harley Suspension Just Doesn't Cut It
Let's face it — stock Harley-Davidson suspension is just average. It’s designed to meet basic factory specs, not to deliver the kind of comfort and performance that real-world, long-distance riders demand.
Factory suspension struggles with:
-
Rough roads and potholes
-
Less than controlled front end dive
-
Varying loads like passengers or luggage without manual adjustments
-
Aggressive cornering control
Most riders upgrade exhaust or intake first. But honestly? Suspension should be your first modification. It directly affects your ride comfort, safety, and overall handling.
Why Wilbers Suspension? What Makes It Different?
Wilbers isn’t just another premium suspension brand — it’s in a class of its own. Here’s why:
1. Engineered for Touring
While many aftermarket suspensions are built for the racetrack, Wilbers is purpose-engineered for real-world riding — delivering exceptional comfort for long touring miles and the performance you need when riding aggressively through corners. It’s expertly tuned to handle changing road conditions and heavy loads without ever sacrificing control or responsiveness.
Yes, I’ve ridden hard through the Tail of the Dragon with Wilbers — trail braking and pushing corners. It held up just as well as race-inspired options, but without the harshness. It’s the best of both worlds.

2. Comfortable Without Being Floaty
Wilbers offers exceptional comfort, but not in the way that makes the bike feel soft or unstable. The ride feels like a sofa on the road, yet with precise control and rebound. It glides over potholes, manhole covers, and uneven pavement while keeping the bike stable and composed.
3. Self-Leveling Rear Suspension (Nivomat Magic)
This is where the German voodoo magic really kicks in. The Wilbers Nivomat system automatically adjusts preload based on your load — rider, passenger, luggage — without you touching a thing.
Compare that to every other system where you must manually adjust preload based on load changes. With Wilbers, just ride. It’ll do the rest.

4. Fully Customized to You
When you order from the Law Abiding Biker Store, we don’t just ship a box. Your Wilbers suspension kit is tuned and customized to your exact specs — rider weight, passenger frequency, luggage load, bike model, and riding style. That’s why we collect that info upfront.
It’s tailor-made. Not off-the-shelf.
One Kit. Full Experience.
In the Law Abiding Biker Store, we only sell Wilbers as a complete front and rear kit. Why? Because the system is designed to work together — front and rear. Selling it separately would be like only upgrading half your engine.
What's Included:
-
Rear self-leveling Nivomat shocks
-
Front progressive fork springs
-
Wilbers suspension fluid
-
Everything you need for installation

My Personal Experience
I ride thousands of miles each year, cross-country and in every condition imaginable. When riding with friends who don’t have Wilbers, they swerve around road hazards and even stand up slightly to help absorb the shock. Me? I go right over them while comfortably seated. Because I trust my Wilbers to handle it — and it always does.
