I agreee. Did exactly that and still happy with my Wilbers +20mm since 2022. Never adjusted anything. Riding for me almost feels like on a GS. 2cm extra travel is not much but enough, at least for me. My requested configuration was as comfortable as possible.

Yes, definitely smoother, more ground clearance and worth every penny in my opinion. Would always do this upgrade again.

Mee too. The Wilbers +20mm works great and one will also get a bit more ground clearance.

That’s what I did on my 2021 FE and I am very happy. The Wilbers made a big difference.

Sold already a year ago.

Maybe this will help. I had the same issue with my R18 FE in the beginning. Checked the key fob and bended the contacts a little bit towards the inside/ battery. After that, no more issues. It’s worth a try. Good luck.

I did exactly the same upgrade to my R18 FE and can only confirm what you experienced. My Wilbers 640 configuration is: rider’s weight 80kg, 20mm higher, as comfortable as possible, 95% solo.

I changed the stock suspension to a Wilbers 640 shock. Another world. Very happy with it!

It can be done in 30min with the right tools. It’s an easy job. However, my dealer did it for me almost for free. I ordered the shock with the 20mm higher option and I was a bit concerned to exchange myself. It worked out very well. It’s really day and night. For a bit lighter people like me...

You made some valuable points. In the end, it’s all subjective anyway. I am “only” 5’8” and for me the stock seats works well in combination with the new Wilbers shock, which btw, I ordered 2cm higher. That brings a bit more suspension travel and in consequence also a bit more felt ground...

The stock seat is not the problem in my opinion. After replacing the rear shock with a customized one from Wilbers, my R18 rides close to the comfort of a GS. 3 hours in the original saddle is not a problem anymore. A few other friends did the same to their R18 and are as happy as I am now. I...

Thank you but I can‘t see who is the supplier on the screen shot

Nice looking upgrades. Who made the front fender?

Below the confirmation from BT Moto that a ownership transfer is no problem.
