The Tractive X-CITE shock for the BMW R 1150 RT is a closed, pressurised mono-shock built around a sealed 38 mm damper body. Its design keeps the damping oil separated from the gas to reduce aeration and maintain consistent behaviour over long rides and varying conditions. This model is a rebound-adjustable configuration, allowing you to fine-tune how quickly the rear suspension returns after compression.

Design & features

  • Closed, pressurised shock architecture for more consistent damping through temperature and repeated movement.
  • Oil/gas separation via an internal separation piston (not an emulsion design).
  • Sealed construction intended to protect internal components from contamination.

Tuning Controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment to tailor ride feel and stability for load, road surface, and riding style.

Base Setup (factory preset)

This shock is supplied with a factory baseline tune from Tractive. Final performance depends on correct installation and setting rebound to suit your bike setup and usage.

Who is this for?

  • BMW R 1150 RT riders looking for a serviceable, pressurised rear shock with rebound adjustment.
  • Touring riders who value consistent damping feel over longer stints and changing road conditions.

Before You Install

  • Confirm compatibility with your exact BMW R 1150 RT configuration before fitment.
  • After installation, set rebound damping to suit your load and riding conditions.
