The TracTive eX-CITE rear shock for the BMW R 1200 RS is a closed, pressurised damper built around a sealed cartridge design to keep damping consistent and resist aeration in demanding use. This unit uses an external reservoir with oil/gas separation to maintain stable behaviour as temperatures and loads change. It is supplied with a spring and includes hydraulic preload adjustment for convenient ride-height and sag changes. No height change is specified in the provided data.
