The TracTive X-CITE shock for the BMW R 1150 GS Adventure is a closed, pressurised mono-shock built around a sealed cartridge design to keep damping consistent over changing conditions. Its architecture separates gas and oil to reduce aeration and maintain stable control on long, rough rides. This unit includes external adjustments so you can tailor feel and response to your load and riding style.
