The Tractive X-CITE shock for the Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin uses a closed, pressurised design with oil and gas separated by an internal piston for consistent damping control. The architecture is aimed at maintaining stable performance across changing temperatures and sustained rough-road use. This model includes rebound damping adjustment to fine-tune feel and chassis behaviour.

Who is this for?

  • Riders who want clearer control over rear-end behaviour via rebound adjustment
  • Adventure and touring use where consistent damping is valued over long, mixed conditions
  • Owners setting up for different loads and riding surfaces and wanting an adjustable baseline

Design & features

  • Closed, pressurised shock body
  • Internal separation piston to keep damping oil and gas apart for more consistent damping
  • Built around a serviceable design intended for ongoing maintenance rather than disposable use

Tuning Controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment

Base Setup (factory preset)

The shock is supplied with an internal baseline tune intended as a starting point. Rebound adjustment lets you refine return speed to suit riding style, surface conditions, and load.

Before You Install

  • Confirm model fitment for your specific CRF1100L Africa Twin variant and year
  • After installation, set the rebound adjuster from the supplied baseline and make changes in small steps while test riding
  • Have sag and overall chassis balance checked after fitment, especially if your loading changes

Serviceability/Lifecycle

As a closed, pressurised shock with oil/gas separation, this unit is designed to be serviceable. Periodic maintenance helps keep damping consistent and extends service life under demanding use.
