Wilbers LDC NIVOMAT Harley-Davidson Suspension Review - 4K Miles

[@PSPTommyG]

This is the first time I have heard of this suspension. Checking them out now. Thanks for this video Paul! 👍👍

[@PaulOnTheRun]

I wasn’t too aware either but they do have their benefits.

[@RidingandWrenching]

Great review. The crappy suspension on my Street Glide Special is a key reason I don't enjoy taking that bike on road trips. I prefer my Road Glide Ultra which seems to ride a bit smoother. However, I've switched to 21" front 18" rear on the Road Glide and it rides a bit hard too, so I'm looking to change the suspension on both of my bikes. I will definitely look into Wilbers.That's a pretty neat graph that shows the difference in vibration before and after

Wrong, my last customer returned after 5 minutes testriding the Wilbers LDC. I was surprised too, but he said, he felt the huge improvement right away. Very good technical explanation, You should convert the fork springs as well-right now Your missing 30% of the Wilbers feeling... Safe rides!

[@PaulOnTheRun]

We didn’t touch on the front but he does have the whole setup. He can definitely tell the difference from stock. Much much improved. Thanks for watching.

[@texasmotorcyclerideradventures]

I do have the Wilbers front setup but we were just reviewing the rears. If you saw the Vibrameter at the end of the video.....huge difference!

[@stefansgarage3014]

@@texasmotorcyclerideradventures Exactly, that's why I put them on my CVO Road Glide, right after picking it up at the dealership. That's how a Harley suspension should be in the first place.

Great pov video you sold me

[@toanbui2812]

How this compare to Ohlins hd044, I wonder one of them

[@Setzerpendence]

The auto leveling is badass

[@texasmotorcyclerideradventures]

I took my wife for a ride and was impressed. She loved the ride compared to stock as well.

[@igoneshopping]

Have you ever used Legends? How does it compare?

[@paulperrello1356]

Good video.. wondering if the suspension raises or lowers the bike?

[@PaulOnTheRun]

it doesn’t exactly raise or lower but adjust to compensate for varying loads to bring back to a proper riding height. What happens is when you load it down, the bike will ride lower for a very brief distance then auto level itself out based on the travel of the shock. Likewise when a load is removed it will do the opposite and bring itself down some keeping the ride equal in handling and load bearing.

Cool man

[@bobbyuykim]

Hi guys nice video… i have a question i hope its nit too much to ask… how does it handle on twisty canyons level of support for an aggressive rider? Thank you

[@jonesnaround]

Does it compensate when you go from 2up to single rider?

[@stefansgarage3014]

Yes that's the beauty of the system. It compensates for load changes, if done one demo video to show that.

[@bobbyuykim]

Im looking for a suspension upgrade on my rgs balance between comfort and performance i consider myself fairly aggressive and i enjoy twisty canyons but it also have to be comfy not a harsh ride… i hope i can get some help here thank you

Hey Bobby hit me up on Instagram. @paulontherun_81

[@danbrown5746]

Seen several reviews, nobody ever says if they would reach into their own pockets to pay for the very expensive suspension.

[@texasmotorcyclerideradventures]

The person who told me about this did but the set. My set was on loan because we are doing many sets and don't have a budget to buy that many suspensions. One thing I have learned trying different suspensions is that there are many solutions and not everyone wants the same thing. These Wilbers shocks work really well for someone who rides single and 2-up often. They absorb the bad stuff and really handle well. I wish I could have kept them but I have another set I am testing now.

[@payogie]

What say you after a few months on Wilbers?

[@PaulOnTheRun]

So we ran those on fellow youtuber Texas Motorcycle Rider's bike which was a 2019 Street Glide Special. He has since sent those back to Wilbers since they were on loan for the video. He did like them and I agree with him that they serve a great purpose for those riding two up or changing various loads. However he doesn't change his setup often and mainly rides solo. He is on another brand of suspension that I believe he will be doing a review on. Overall he liked but since they were on loan he didn't keep them any longer than an initial 5k miles that he got to use them.

[@jasonkimble8926]

What's the review on your setup, Paul.

[@PaulOnTheRun]

On my specific bike? I didn't run the wilbers on my bike since they only sent us one complete suspension from Wilbers. We decided that Scott would test and review this suspension and I progressive. I have a review coming up on that shortly.

[@jasonkimble8926]
