The Tractive eX-PERIENCE shock for the BMW R 1200 GS Adventure is a 46 mm rear shock absorber built around a closed, pressurised damping system for consistent control on long-distance and mixed-surface riding. Its oil and gas are separated with an internal separation piston, helping maintain stable damping under sustained use. This unit includes a spring and a fixed hydraulic preload adjuster for convenient load changes.

Before You Install
