Racing Background

What works on a superbike at the limit also helps the Thruxton on the road.

Before You Start

Plan a fork service on the Thruxton with the right tools, or let a workshop do it. Please observe the fitting note Wilbers gives for this fork.

One Kit, One Leg

The kit contains one dust ring and one oil seal for sealing one fork tube. Most riders order two kits to service both legs together. Depending on the bike, a snap ring or a spacer ring may be part of the kit.

Why the Thruxton Benefits

Every kilometre on the Thruxton wears the fork seals a little. The result is a fork that moves more freely over small bumps. For the Thruxton, it is the obvious upgrade whenever the fork is opened anyway.

Time for New Seals?

Leaking seals on the Thruxton also let grit reach the bushings. If the fork is opened for springs or oil, fit new seals at the same time.

SKF Seal Technology

On the Thruxton's Kayaba, 41 mm fork, the green seal brings SKF's patented material. It combines lasting sealing with very little friction. That is good news for the Kayaba, 41 mm fork tubes of the Thruxton.
