The Ohlins STX 46 Supersport rear shock for the Aprilia RSV 1000 Mille is designed to deliver controlled damping and stable chassis behaviour under demanding riding. It uses a gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated layout to help maintain consistent performance as conditions and temperatures change. This unit suits riders who want clearer feedback and meaningful adjustment range from the rear suspension.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins suspension development is grounded in predictable damping response and repeatable setup changes. The Supersport range focuses on usable tuning controls so adjustments are easier to feel and validate on the road or track.

Who this shock is for

This shock is aimed at Aprilia RSV 1000 Mille riders chasing a more tunable rear end with improved consistency under load. It’s a good fit when you want to refine balance and grip feel rather than simply replace a worn unit.

Shock design & features

This is a gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated rear shock (not an emulsion design). The STX 46 platform is built around stable damping control to support the chassis across changing pace and surface conditions.

Tuning controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment to control how quickly the rear returns after compression, affecting stability and drive feel.
  • Compression damping adjustment to manage support under load, influencing squat, line-holding and traction feel.
  • Length adjustment to fine-tune rear ride height and chassis attitude, influencing steering response and overall balance.

Base setup (factory preset)

The factory baseline is intended as a practical starting point for the RSV 1000 Mille, with adjustment range available to suit tyre choice, pace and conditions. Methodical, one-change-at-a-time tuning helps confirm direction.

Serviceability/lifecycle

This is a serviceable unit designed for ongoing maintenance. Periodic inspection and oil/gas service helps preserve damping consistency and protects internal components as hours and heat cycles accumulate.
