    Bob’s BMW is a FACTORY AUTHORIZED SALES & SERVICE CENTER for ÖHLINS Suspension!
    We’re proud to say that we were the nation’s FIRST dealership to be chosen for this honor.

    ÖHLINS suspension products are the best in the world. Period. If you want the best handling and comfort from your motorcycle, then let the Factory Trained techs at Bob’s BMW install ÖHLINS shocks on your bike now. Front and rear shocks for all BMW models are IN STOCK!

    Did you know? …
    • Most stock shocks loose 60% of their efficiency after only 20,000 miles — gone for good.
    • ÖHLINS suspension systems are easily adjustable for all riding conditions.
    Bob’s Service Department can “tune” your ÖHLINS shock, adjust for sag, and assure optimal ride.
    • Most stock suspension systems cannot be rebuilt.
    • ÖHLINS shocks are completely serviceable and will last as long as you own your ride.
    A complete ÖHLINS service, front or rear, takes less than an hour at Bob’s!
    • Stock suspensions are only covered for length of the manufacturer's warranty.
    • ÖHLINS has a FIVE year warranty!

    If you already have ÖHLINS shocks, congratulations! You probably remember when they were installed and feeling what a revelation it was to ride on such incredible suspension. Well, if you’ve put some miles on them, it may be time for service. The good news is that you can get that “new shock” feeling back. ÖHLINS shocks are quite simply designed to be rebuilt, and at minimal expense. They’ll perform as good as when they were new.
    The Techs at Bob’s have all the ÖHLINS factory training, parts and special tools required to handle your suspension needs expertly.

    If you live too far from Bob's to make riding in convenient, remove your shocks yourself and SEND them to us for service! We will service/rebuild any ÖHLINS shock from any make or model motorcycle and return them to you QUICKLY as good as NEW. Your SATISFACTION is GUARANTEED!
