The TracTive X-CHANGE ESA2 rear shock upgrade for the BMW R1200RT is a closed, pressurised shock that integrates with the bike’s ESA2 electronic system. It features a separated oil/gas design with a fixed reservoir and includes PDS for added bottoming control. This version is built in a lowered configuration (approximately -25 mm), which changes ride height and should be considered alongside stand length and clearance.

Design & features

  • Closed, pressurised shock architecture for consistent damping behaviour.
  • Separated oil/gas design with a fixed reservoir to help manage heat and cavitation.
  • Includes PDS (Progressive Damping System) to add support near the end of the stroke.
  • Electronic (ESA2) compatibility for on-bike mode control.

Tuning Controls

  • Electronic adjustment via ESA2 (integrates with the motorcycle’s electronic suspension control).

Who is this for?

  • BMW R1200RT riders wanting to retain ESA2 electronic adjustment while fitting a TracTive rear shock.
  • Riders seeking a lowered ride height option (approximately -25 mm) for reach and stability at stops.

Before You Install

  • Confirm the lowered ride height suits your setup, including side stand/centre stand function and cornering clearance.
  • Check ESA2 electrical connectors and routing during installation to avoid strain on wiring.

Serviceability/Lifecycle

  • Pressurised, separated oil/gas shocks are typically designed to be serviced to maintain performance over time.
  • Service intervals depend on use conditions (touring, load, road quality).
