The Ohlins AP941 STX 46 Supersport rear shock is built to improve rear-end control and feedback as speeds and loads increase. It focuses on stability and traction under braking and on corner exit, with damping behaviour designed to remain consistent during demanding use. This unit is intended for riders who want a more tunable, predictable chassis feel from the back of the bike.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins Supersport shocks are developed around repeatable damping response and practical tuning range for road and track use. The goal is clearer chassis communication and more consistent behaviour when you start pushing harder.

Who this shock is for

  • Aprilia RSV 1000 SL Falco riders looking for improved rear stability and traction when riding at a higher pace
  • Riders who want external damping adjustments to fine-tune support and grip
  • Trackday and spirited road riders chasing more consistent rear-end feel through a session

Shock design & features

This is an STX 46 Supersport rear shock with an oil/gas separated, gas-pressurised damping design (not an emulsion shock). The separated layout helps maintain consistent damping under sustained heat and load, supporting repeatability when conditions and pace change.

Tuning controls

The AP941 provides independent compression and rebound damping adjustment. Compression adjustment influences how the rear resists load inputs such as braking forces and sharper bumps, while rebound adjustment manages how the shock returns after compression, affecting grip, stability and drive on corner exit.

Base setup (factory preset)

The factory baseline is intended as a proven starting point for controlled response and predictable support. From there, adjustments can be refined to suit tyres, riding style and surface conditions.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Like all performance dampers, periodic servicing helps maintain consistent damping performance over time. Keeping the shock oil and seals in good condition also makes tuning changes more repeatable and easier to interpret.
