The Tractive X-PERIENCE Shock for the Suzuki DL1000 V-Strom uses a closed, pressurised shock architecture with a separated oil/gas design to support consistent damping on long-distance and mixed-surface riding. This model includes a remote reservoir and is built around a 46 mm shock body platform. Damping is externally adjustable with independent compression and rebound controls to help tailor feel to load, tyres and road conditions.

Who is this for?

  • Riders using their DL1000 V-Strom for touring, commuting, and weekend rides who want more control and consistency as conditions change.
  • Owners who carry luggage or a passenger and want damping that can be tuned to suit different loads.
  • Anyone who prefers a serviceable shock designed for ongoing use rather than a fit-and-forget consumable.

Design & features

  • Closed, pressurised shock design with oil/gas separation via an internal separation piston for stable damping behaviour.
  • Remote reservoir (hose-mounted) to manage damping performance under sustained use.
  • 46 mm shock body platform.

Tuning Controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment.
  • Compression damping adjustment.

Before You Install

  • Confirm fitment for your exact DL1000 V-Strom model and year range before installation.
  • Set sag and baseline adjusters after installation, then fine-tune compression and rebound to suit your usual load and riding conditions.
  • Installation should be completed by a competent technician with appropriate tools and workshop procedures.

Serviceability/Lifecycle

  • Designed as a rebuildable shock, supporting periodic servicing to keep damping performance consistent over time.
  • Closed, pressurised construction helps reduce aeration and maintain predictable behaviour through extended use.

Need Help Choosing?

  • If you share how you ride (solo/two-up, luggage, typical roads, and pace), we can help suggest a sensible baseline setup and tuning approach for this shock’s compression and rebound adjustments.
