The Tractive X-CITE Shock for the BMW R 1150 RT is a 38 mm, closed and pressurised rear shock designed to deliver consistent damping through a sealed, gas-backed oil system. Its architecture helps maintain stable performance over long rides by reducing foaming and fade compared with non-pressurised designs. This model includes external rebound adjustment so you can fine-tune chassis behaviour to suit load and road conditions.
