The TracTive X-CHANGE ESA1 Rear Shock Upgrade for BMW R1200GS is a closed, pressurised rear shock designed to integrate with the bike’s ESA1 system. It uses a sealed cartridge-style internal architecture to maintain consistent damping behaviour and reduce aeration under demanding conditions. This version is the low option, with a -25 mm ride height change.

Design & features

  • Closed, pressurised shock design to better control cavitation and keep damping more consistent.
  • Sealed cartridge internal architecture intended for stable performance over long, varied rides.
  • Configured for ESA1 integration on BMW R1200GS.
  • Low-height configuration: -25 mm.

Tuning Controls

  • Electronic damping adjustment via the ESA1 system.

Who is this for?

  • BMW R1200GS riders who want an ESA1-compatible rear shock solution.
  • Riders seeking a lower stance with a -25 mm ride height change.
  • Owners who prefer electronic damping control rather than manual adjusters at the shock.

Before You Install

  • Confirm your motorcycle is equipped with ESA1 and matches the intended BMW R1200GS fitment.
  • Account for the -25 mm ride height change when setting up the bike for your use.
  • Inspect related mounting hardware and surrounding components during installation.

Serviceability/Lifecycle

  • As a sealed, pressurised unit, service procedures and intervals should be handled in line with TracTive suspension service requirements.
