MOTORCYCLE SHOCK ABSORBERS

Types of motorcycle shock absorbers available

Shock absorbers are essential elements for comfort and safety when riding any type of motorcycle. For this reason, Genial Motor is committed to carefully selecting different types of products, offering a complete range of front and rear shock absorbers, available in "Mono" and "Double" configurations.

At Genial Motor you will find a wide range of motorcycle shock absorbers, such as:

• Rear shock absorbers: they are essential for maintaining stability and comfort, especially during long trips or on rough terrain. We offer adjustable shock absorbers that allow you to lower or raise the bike according to the rider's needs, thus improving the riding experience.
• Front shock absorbers: they ensure the best impact absorption and stable braking. Our solutions include adjustable shock absorbers, which can be adapted to achieve maximum efficiency in every riding situation.
• Steering dampers: helps maintain the stability of the motorcycle's direction, especially at high speeds or on uneven roads, useful for damping handlebar oscillations, improving the motorcycle's directional stability. It is particularly useful at high speeds or on rough terrain, reducing the risk of "tank slappers" and offering more precise control.

The purpose of motorcycle shock absorbers

The shock absorber is a system that aims to dampen oscillation or slow down movement (compression or extension) of the motorcycle's suspension.

In a vehicle, shock absorbers are used to reduce the unpleasant effect of traveling on rough terrain, leading to a better ride quality, increased comfort, and, importantly, greater vehicle stability and drivability.

In fact, without shock absorbers, the vehicle's wheels would lose contact with the ground due to road surface deformations, lose grip, and consequently lead to a loss of vehicle control.

How to know if your motorcycle shock absorbers need replacement

Regular maintenance and inspection of shock absorbers are essential to ensure their efficiency and longevity. If you notice that a shock absorber is leaking oil or no longer offers the desired comfort and stability, it may indeed be time for a revision and possibly replacement. But why does a shock absorber stop working properly after a while? What has been damaged? Nothing irreparable; simply the hydraulic fluid, with continuous passage through the narrow orifices of the damping system, has become dirty, filled with air bubbles, and has therefore lost viscosity and no longer slows down the piston movement adequately, as it flows faster through the passages being less "dense".

To assist you, Genial Motor also offers professional overhaul services to keep your shock absorbers in optimal condition.

Advantages of quality shock absorbers

Installing high-quality shock absorbers means gaining several benefits for your motorcycle.

• Improved ride comfort: high-quality shock absorbers, like those from Ohlins and Bitubo, offer a smoother ride, effectively absorbing shocks and vibrations;
• Stability and safety: well-adjusted shock absorbers improve motorcycle stability, reducing the risk of skidding and ensuring optimal control in every situation;
• Customizable ride: with adjustable shock absorbers, it is possible to customize the bike's setup to suit different riding styles and road conditions;
• Durability: our shock absorbers are built to last, resisting wear and maintaining their performance over time.
