R1100R (1995) suspension upgrade/replacement

Post by dasronin »

I want to refresh (change out) the front & rear suspension. Years back I remember an aftermarket upgrade and I cannot find anything now.

So... I want fresh OEM or reasonable aftermarket. Can anyone recommend or lead me the right direction?

Ohlins are nice, but you can go with Wilbers for considerably less. I priced out Ohlins at about $1,600 for mry R1100R, and Wilbers were right at $1,100. Both companies make solid products with outstanding reputations, and both are rebuildable.
