news ROOM Hyperpro BMW ESA shocks upgrade promotion Dutch suspension specialist Hyperpro is offering a special promotion on BMW ESA shocks this summer – shocks sold between July 4th and September 15th will qualify for a first service free of charge. Sales & Marketing Director Jan Belder told IDN: “With this campaign we are emphasizing three things - the need for good suspension, the need to service suspension after two years or 20,000km in order to keep quality components operating at optimum performance, and the reliability, durability and quality of our products. “We stand behind our designs and quality 100 percent – so much so that we can offer a free first service, because we know our suspensions are good for many tens of thousands of miles.” The company says that the only condition for the promotion is that the free first service is valid for the first user, showing the original invoice (a copy is fine) with a purchase date between 01-07-17 and 15-09-17. The offer excludes the cost of mounting and dismantling of the shocks and shipping and is valid for two years after purchase date. The service includes inspection of the shocks and replacement of oil and necessary seals. Belder explained that because the BMW R1200GS/A is one of the best selling bikes of recent years, with 2008-2013 models still very much in use, as these motorcycles are getting older, the OEM shock absorbers will show some issues, with replacement required. “Issues like non-functioning ESA adjustment as a result of a damaged adjustment motor, too soft springs, lack of damping - these and other needs of the rider can be solved by installing Hyperpro products. “We offer serviceable front and/or rear shocks using our proven 460 emulsion dampers as a basis for a top quality, cost- effective upgrade. The shocks are equipped with a stronger ESA stepper motor, waterproof connectors, an improved damping setting and a progressive black or purple spring. The shocks are ‘plug and play’, ready to connect to the BMW ESA system and make use of the original preload adjustment. “This solution delivers a better balanced bike, which is more stable and comfortable to ride, both as a solo rider or as two- up rider, with or without luggage.” www.hyperpro.com INTERNATIONAL DEALER NEWS - AUGUST/SEPTEMBER 2017 15
