Changing Royal Enfield shock absorbers

Replacing the rear shock absorbers of your Royal Enfield is generally caused by shock absorbers at the end of their life or defective. It can also satisfy a desire for aesthetics or to improve the performance of a Himalayan, Bullet, Classic, Continental or Interceptor.

In most cases, the basis is on a relatively old model such as the Royal Enfield models from 2009 to 2019. Whether out of necessity or for a Scrambler or Café racer type preparation, it is essential to benefit from good suspension. This will ensure perfect and secure handling while protecting the engine and frame of your Royal Enfield.

Functions of rear shock absorbers on a motorcycle?

The rear shock absorbers keep the rear wheel in contact with the ground and provide the driver and passenger with the comfort necessary for a good driving experience. The handling and responsiveness of the suspensions depend on one or more efficient settings.

The springs or the hydraulic system of the suspensions absorb shocks caused by the roads taken. In combination with the tires, they provide optimal damping which will absorb vibrations and provide optimal grip in response to the different demands of motorcycle driving:

• speed ;
• braking;
• the angle of inclination.

Hydraulics control oscillations by balancing the energy generated by the spring. Compression (rising of the rod) and relaxation (descending of the rod) are managed by valves placed inside a tube.

When to replace Royal Enfield shock absorbers?

Different shock absorber wear factors must be taken into account:

• range ;
• seniority;
• mileage;
• traffic conditions;
• the materials used;

Although it is generally accepted that a shock absorber loses its effectiveness after 50,000 km , this is not an absolute rule. Indeed, some will give up before while others will maintain good effectiveness beyond that.

Due to the habit of riding a motorcycle and the adaptation of each rider, it is difficult to perceive the loss of effectiveness of its shock absorbers. This is caused by a phenomenon of progressive wear which makes it undetectable (properties of the oil diminishing over kilometers, wear of the seals).

This is why oil leaks caused by worn seals are very often the main warning sign. It is therefore important to be attentive to unusual reactions from your Royal Enfield:

• locking of the rear wheel in the event of heavy braking;
• bounces on bumps;
• instability of the motorcycle when exiting a turn.

These are all signs indicating problems with shock absorbers. Please note that if your motorcycle stands up immediately, without being braked, after exerting pressure on the rear of the motorcycle, reveals a damping problem, this does not provide a real indication of the condition of the shock absorbers.

The handling of your Royal Enfield has changed, crossing potholes or bumps causes excessive bounces; its behavior in turns, during periods of acceleration or braking has changed, so it is time to check the condition of your shock absorbers.
