We installed Wilbers LDC Nivomat front and rear suspension on a 2021 Harley-Davidson CVO Ultra. After riding the new Wilber's suspension on many different road surfaces, I can highly recommend this suspension and we decided to carry it right in the Law Abiding Biker Store. In this video, I give you my opinions about Wilber's suspension for Harley and compare it to several other name-brand aftermarket suspensions that I've tested over the years.

WHY WE CHANGED THIS HARLEY SUSPENSION:

The owner was not happy with the overall ride of this 2021 CVO, which came with the standard manually adjustable rear shocks that Harley has used for many years now on its touring models. He wanted a smoother ride and better cornering abilities, all of which the Wilbers LDC Nivomat front and rear suspension provides!

We were absolutely blown away at how much smoother this Harley CVO Ultra rode and cornered after installing Wilbers front and rear suspension! We did not realize what a difference this suspension would make! We tested it through alleys, potholes, dirt, speed bumps, and railroad tracks. And wow, it was more than we expected and we highly recommend upgrading your rear Harley shocks to Wilbers! It even got rid of most of the bagger wobble while cornering at faster speeds. This Harley CVO just rode like a completely different bike!

What is LDC Nivomat?

• The LDC shock absorber consists of two separate oil chambers, one large-diameter piston rod, a mechanical pump with a pressure valve, and a short external suspension spring.
• With the oil chambers, a distinction is made between external low-pressure and internal gas-assisted high-pressure chamber. When weight is put on the shock, the rod automatically pumps the oil from the low- into the high-pressure chamber. At the same time, the piston rod is pushed out of the damper. This pumping process takes only as long as it takes to balance the bike. The shock absorber settles to the correct level after driving about 1000 ft.
• The low-pressure chamber is located on the outside, the high-pressure chamber is on the inside. When an extra load is applied to the bike, the rod pumps oil from the middle of the low-pressure-chamber to the high-pressure-chamber – the shaft rebounds and the spring rate increases progressively.
• With the LDC Nivomat Twin Shock system, the system functions are divided into two individual components. The Ecoline shock absorber is equipped with a spiral steel spring and takes over part of the overall damping. The Nivomat provides the level control and adjusts the spring rate and the additional, variable damping required depending on the load. The rider doesn't need to manually adjust anything.
• This is why the two shocks look different in the twin shock setup. But if you have a bagger, then no one can see that they are different.
