The Ohlins STX 46 Adventure rear shock is a direct-fit replacement for the Aprilia Dorsoduro 1200, aimed at improving control and consistency for adventure and touring use. It is designed to help maintain stable handling when conditions change and when riding with luggage or a pillion. External adjusters allow practical tuning without disassembly.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins suspension is developed with a focus on predictable damping behaviour and repeatable tuning. This shock is intended to reduce rider workload by keeping the chassis composed over varied road surfaces. The result is controlled response and clearer feedback at the tyre.

Shock design & features

This is a monotube rear mono shock with oil and gas separated to support consistent damping during sustained riding. The STX 46 Adventure architecture is suited to mixed-use riding where temperature stability and controlled movement are important. It is supplied as a complete rear shock unit for the model listed.

Tuning controls

This shock includes spring preload adjustment to set support for rider weight and load changes. Rebound damping adjustment is provided to control how quickly the shock extends after compression, affecting grip and stability. Compression damping adjustment is included to tune resistance to bump forces and manage chassis movement under acceleration and impacts.

Base setup (factory preset)

The factory baseline is intended as a balanced starting point for general adventure and touring riding. From there, adjusters allow you to account for typical load, road surface and riding style. Make changes methodically to keep front and rear behaviour in balance.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Ohlins shocks are designed to be serviceable so performance can be restored as oil ages and wear items bed in. Regular inspection and periodic servicing help maintain damping consistency and protect internal components, particularly when used over rough surfaces.
