The Tractive eX-CITE Shock for the BMW R 1250 GS is a closed, pressurised shock absorber built around a sealed cartridge architecture to help keep damping consistent and resistant to aeration. This design separates oil and gas internally, supporting stable performance over long rides and varied conditions. It’s engineered as a complete replacement rear shock assembly for the model listed.

Who is this for?

  • BMW R 1250 GS owners looking for a high-quality, pressurised shock built for consistent damping.
  • Riders who want a shock designed for repeatable behaviour across changing loads and road surfaces.

Design & features

  • Closed, pressurised construction with internal oil/gas separation.
  • Sealed cartridge-based damping layout to support consistency and reduce foaming.
  • Purpose-built Tractive unit for the BMW R 1250 GS application.

Tuning Controls

This shock uses electronic adjustment. Confirm compatibility and the intended electronic interface during selection to ensure it matches your motorcycle’s configuration.

Before You Install

  • Verify exact fitment for your BMW R 1250 GS variant before installation.
  • If your bike uses electronic suspension control, confirm the shock’s electronic adjustment integration requirements before booking installation.
  • Professional installation is recommended to ensure correct setup and safe operation.

Serviceability/Lifecycle

As a pressurised, sealed-cartridge style shock, servicing should be carried out by a qualified suspension technician with the appropriate tools and procedures for pressurised units.
