The Tractive X-CITE Shock for BMW R 1300 GS uses a closed, pressurised architecture with a separated oil and gas chamber to keep damping consistent and reduce aeration under sustained use. This Basic configuration includes rebound adjustment and is designed as a direct-fit replacement shock assembly. It is supplied with a coil spring and provides a straightforward approach to tuning without adding extra external reservoirs.

Design & features

  • Closed, pressurised shock design with separated oil/gas to help maintain consistent damping
  • Single rebound adjustment for damping control
  • Coil spring equipped
  • Non-reservoir layout (no external reservoir)

Tuning Controls

  • Rebound damping: externally adjustable to tailor how quickly the shock returns after compression
  • Compression damping: not adjustable on this model
  • Electronic control: not included

Base Setup (factory preset)

This shock is delivered with Tractive’s baseline internal valving and a single rebound adjuster, intended to provide a practical starting point for general road and mixed-use riding. Fine-tune rebound to suit load, pace, and surface conditions once installed.

Who is this for?

  • BMW R 1300 GS riders wanting a simplified, durable shock configuration with rebound tuning
  • Owners who prefer a closed, pressurised shock design for consistency over long rides
  • Riders who do not need external reservoir features or electronic adjustment

Before You Install

  • Confirm motorcycle model and year applicability for your BMW R 1300 GS before ordering
  • Set sag and rebound after installation to suit your rider weight, luggage, and typical terrain
  • Inspect linkage and mounting hardware condition during fitment

Serviceability/Lifecycle

As a pressurised, separated oil/gas shock, the X-CITE is designed to be serviceable to restore performance over time. Service intervals will depend on usage conditions, loads, and operating environment.
