Product description

The springs are designed for use in the rear wheel suspension area and offer a progressive characteristic curve that hardens accordingly as the load increases. This achieves a balanced driving behavior that supports both comfort and control. The robust heavy-duty design is suitable for use under demanding conditions.

The surface of the springs is chrome-plated, which is not only visually appealing, but also protects against corrosion and increases the service life of the components. The length of 238 mm corresponds to the requirements of the BMW K 1100 and ensures a precise installation.

This set includes two springs that should be replaced in pairs to ensure equal spring action on both sides. The simple progressive spring rate enables the spring hardness to be continuously adjusted while driving, which is particularly advantageous when the load conditions change.

The shock absorber springs are part of the Suspension Group-Rear and are a suitable addition to the chassis of the BMW K 1100. They contribute to improving driving stability and driving comfort by optimally adapting the spring forces to the respective driving conditions.
