NJB Shocks, Ultimate, Aluminum with Steel Body, adjusts from 335 mm to 385 mm - NEW! Use drop down to select spring (Med or Heavy).
2 OPTIONS:
MIS-NJB-ULTIMATE - MED
MIS-NJB-ULTIMATE - Heavy
These are non rebuildable shocks, hence the price, and they set up with medium springs (75 pounds per inch) or heavy springs (90 pounds per inch), a softer spring is also available. Please use the drop down arrow to select med or heavy.
When you receive your shocks, you must adjust the length of the shock as we ship them condensed! Do not slap them on as is...or it will be a firm ride.

NJB Shocks are used by competition and leisure riders around the world.
NJB have constantly updated their Classic shocks over the years but there have been few changes in their appearance.
Riders have been asking for aluminium shocks as these are very attractive, particularly on competition bikes, but we were unhappy with the wear rate of aluminium bodies.
For the best of both worlds, aluminium for reduced weight and appearance, with a steel body (chrome plated of course) for maximum life, our new ‘ULTIMATE’ shocks have addressed both of these demands as well as having new features to enhance the performance of the shocks and the set-up experience.
The wide spring preload adjustment is used to set up the spring for best performance, and the ride height of the machine can then be changed by adjusting the shock length (without removing the shocks) to obtain the best steering response, without compromising the preload setting.
The length is adjustable between 335 and 385mm.
‘ULTIMATE’ shocks can be used with the spring at the top or bottom to avoid any installation problems.
These images and videos show some of the riders who have successfully used the new ‘ULTIMATE’ shocks since their introduction.

ABOUT NJB SHOCKS
NJB SHOCKS has now been in business for more than 25 years.
In 1990 Norman Blakemore took early retirement after 24 years in a number of technical capacities with Girling, at one time the premier motor cycle shock absorber manufacturer.
He took a specification developed by Girling with the leading works riders of the time, and never supplied to the paying customer, and after further development this formed the basis for NJB SHOCKS.
Again working with expert riders updated shocks for Motocross/Scrambles, road and circuit racing were developed, and finally a range of shocks for road bikes was introduced.
The aim has always been to provide a range of shocks developed specially for each discipline, of high quality, with reliability, at a sensible price.
Direct sales are made throughout the world and we have agents and distributors in several countries.
Over the years many changes have been made to specifications, reflecting changes in technology, riding styles, and customer expectations.
Most shocks are built to order and can be changed to meet any special requirements, and delivery times are usually short.
