The Ohlins AP936 STX 46 Supersport rear shock is a direct-fit replacement for the listed Aprilia RSV4 models, developed for consistent chassis control when riding hard on road or track. The focus is on clear feedback and repeatable damping behaviour under aggressive acceleration, braking, and cornering. It is designed to help keep the bike composed through rapid load changes as pace and temperatures rise.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins Supersport rear shocks are developed with track use in mind, prioritising stability, traction, and predictable response. The aim is to support the tyre while reducing unwanted movement that can disrupt line choice and drive.

Who this shock is for

  • Aprilia RSV4 riders wanting more controlled rear support for fast road riding and track days
  • Riders chasing consistent feel as conditions and temperatures change across a session
  • Those wanting a direct-fit rear shock solution for the specified models

Shock design & features

This is a gas-pressurised shock design intended to maintain consistent damping behaviour during extended, hard use. The internal layout is aimed at stable performance and reduced fade when demands increase.

Tuning controls

This unit provides independent compression damping and rebound damping adjustment. Compression adjustment influences how the shock resists being compressed under braking, bumps, and throttle application, while rebound adjustment controls the return speed after compression to help manage grip and stability during transitions.

Before you install

  • Confirm correct application for your exact model and year within the listed RSV4 range
  • Set a sound baseline before making damping changes, and adjust one circuit at a time when testing
  • After changes, evaluate stability and tyre wear to confirm direction

Serviceability/lifecycle

As with all performance shocks, routine servicing helps keep damping consistent and protects internal components from wear. Service timing depends on use intensity and operating conditions (track versus road).

Öhlins Motorcycle Suspension Warranty

New Öhlins motorcycle shock absorbers, front forks and cartridge kits supplied by Teknik Motorsport are covered by the applicable Öhlins manufacturer’s warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.

Teknik Motorsport is an authorised Öhlins Service Centre and administers warranty claims in accordance with the Öhlins warranty conditions. The service intervals below form part of the maintenance requirements for Öhlins products supplied and supported by Teknik Motorsport.

This warranty is in addition to the consumer guarantees that apply under the Australian Consumer Law.

  • Registered motorcycles — non-competition road use Five years, subject to correct application, installation, setup and servicing every: 20,000 km or two years, whichever occurs first.
  • Registered motorcycles — adventure and light off-road use Five years, subject to correct application, spring rate, setup and servicing every: 10,000 km or annually, whichever occurs first.
  • Unregistered or competition motorcycles Two years for eligible Öhlins MX and Enduro products, subject to inspection every ten hours and servicing every: 30 operating hours or annually, whichever occurs first.

Compliance with the applicable service interval is a condition of the Öhlins manufacturer’s warranty. Evidence of servicing may be required when a warranty claim is assessed.

A seal leak, loss of damping performance or internal wear arising after the prescribed service interval has been exceeded will be treated as a service or maintenance issue rather than a manufacturing defect.

Warranty repairs

Öhlins suspension products are designed to be serviced and repaired. Where a warranty claim is approved, the normal remedy is repair of the customer’s original suspension unit using genuine Öhlins replacement parts.

Replacement of a complete shock absorber, fork or cartridge kit is not automatic and would normally occur only where the product has suffered a manufacturing failure that cannot reasonably be repaired. This is at Ohlins discretion. 

Öhlins spare parts and service kits

Öhlins spare parts, seals, bushes, service kits, springs, fluids and individual components are covered only against defects present when supplied.

No fixed age-based warranty applies to wear items, service parts or consumable components. Wear, deterioration, contamination, incorrect installation and damage caused by another component are not manufacturing defects.

Öhlins gives the customer a meaningful five-year warranty on products (Units), provided the suspension is maintained as suspension should be maintained. Teknik supports that warranty locally, can inspect the product properly, and can repair it with genuine parts rather than discarding it.
