Nitron NTR R1 Sport - Big-Piston Integral Pressurised Gas-Monotube Rear Shock Absorber for Laverda 668 1997-1998 Ref: NTSPTLAV
Simply fit and feel the ride
The perfect, compliant and controlled road shock - built just for you, to your exact specification, from your suspension specialists, HPS
Despite being Nitron's entry level bespoke rear shock absorber, with its full 40mm diameter piston, this unit will outperform much more expensive units from the "bigger" manufacturers and will always offer a significant improvement in comfort and response over the OE shock fitted to your bike - even if it has a remote or piggy-back reservoir. It features a totally uncomplicated single adjuster knob which tunes both rebound and compression damping simultaneously - making it perfect for the road biased rider and, don't forget, we have a special build service for shorter riders who need a lower seat height; please ask for details.
Made in England, all Nitron shocks supplied by HPS are totally rebuildable and backed with a full UK technical support and service operation.

"Nitron Sport shock... Affordable, high quality suspension unit for road riders."
Rupert Paul, Journalist, BIKE magazine

| After fitting the Nitron shock our customer said...
"I was slightly surprised when I sat on the bike that the suspension moved and that when I rode it my pelvis did not flex. It also became apparent that I don't have double vision at speeds over 60mph after all... and the seat is not in fact made of forged steel. My kidneys appear to be in the same place they were at the start of the ride which is a bonus.
The downside is that the plushness of the rear end now highlights just how bad the forks are... The upside is that I don't have to buy a new seat!
I should have done this years ago. Thanks for your help." MG, Swindon
