The Ohlins AP036 TTX RT rear shock is designed to deliver consistent damping response and clear rear-tyre feedback for the Aprilia RSV4 1000. It focuses on stable chassis control with adjustments that respond predictably to change. This supports a structured setup approach for track and fast road riding.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins suspension is developed around repeatability, so setup changes translate into meaningful differences in feel. The focus is usable support, grip and composure across varying surfaces and riding intensity.

Shock design & features

This unit uses the Ohlins TTX twin-tube layout with oil and gas separation to help maintain damping consistency under load and temperature change. Managing the fluid and gas in this way supports stable response and helps reduce cavitation risk during sustained hard use.

Tuning controls

Rebound damping adjustment controls how quickly the rear returns after bumps or load changes, influencing traction and stability on corner exit. Compression damping adjustment influences how firmly the rear resists load transfer and sharp impacts, affecting support and feel on entry and mid-corner. Ride height adjustment allows geometry changes to tune steering response versus high-speed stability.

Base setup (factory preset)

Baseline settings are intended as a balanced starting point for the RSV4 1000, then refined to suit tyres, surface and rider preference. Working from a known baseline helps keep changes logical and repeatable.

Before you install

Confirm rear sag and overall chassis balance before making damping changes. If ride height is altered, re-check braking stability and the bike’s attitude through corner entry and exit, as geometry shifts can change the way the damping settings present.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Regular servicing helps preserve damping consistency and internal condition, particularly where the bike sees frequent hard use. Service intervals should be guided by riding intensity and conditions.
