The Tractive eX-CITE Shock for the BMW K 1600 GTL is a closed, pressurised rear shock designed around a sealed cartridge architecture to maintain consistent damping control. Its pressurised oil/gas separation helps reduce foaming under sustained use for steadier performance. This model uses an integrated reservoir design rather than a remote hose setup.

Design & features

  • Closed, pressurised shock design with oil and gas separated by an internal piston to help keep damping consistent.
  • Sealed cartridge architecture intended for stable operation and predictable response.
  • Integrated reservoir configuration for a compact, self-contained installation.

Tuning Controls

  • Electronic adjustment (designed to work with the motorcycle’s electronic control system).

Base Setup (factory preset)

The shock is supplied with a baseline internal tune intended as a starting point for road use. Final setup depends on rider load and typical luggage/passenger use.

Before You Install

  • Confirm motorcycle model and year compatibility for the BMW K 1600 GTL.
  • Inspect mounting hardware and linkage condition before fitting a new shock.
  • If your bike uses electronic suspension control, ensure the electrical connection and routing are handled carefully during installation.

Serviceability/Lifecycle

As a sealed, pressurised unit, this shock is built to maintain damping quality over time. Regular inspection for leaks, bushing wear, and general condition is recommended as part of normal maintenance.
