The Ohlins STX 46 Supersport rear shock for the Bimota YB 4 is built to deliver consistent damping control and clear chassis feedback. Based on Ohlins race-developed architecture, it is intended for riders who want a more controlled rear end under braking, corner entry and acceleration. The design focuses on predictable traction and stable handling across a wide range of riding conditions.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins Supersport shocks are developed from competition experience and adapted for high-performance road and track use. The aim is to provide accurate damping behaviour and repeatable adjustments, so changes you make are reflected clearly in how the bike responds.

Who this shock is for

• Riders wanting improved stability and rear tyre contact feel on spirited road rides.
• Track day riders looking for more consistent damping control and clearer feedback.
• Owners upgrading from ageing or under-performing original suspension.

Shock design & features

This is a gas-pressurised rear mono shock that uses the STX 46 Supersport platform. The pressurised design helps maintain damping consistency when the shock is working hard, supporting stable handling and traction. It is engineered as a complete replacement unit for the specified fitment.

Tuning controls

This shock provides external adjustment for rebound damping and compression damping, along with an adjustable spring preload. These controls let you balance chassis support and comfort, and fine-tune grip and response for road or track conditions.

Before you install

• Set sag and preload before making damping changes, using the fitted spring as supplied.
• Make adjustments one at a time and record each change so you can return to a known baseline.
• After installation, confirm clearance and correct fastener torque for the linkage and mounts.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Like any high-performance damper, regular servicing helps maintain damping consistency and component life. If performance changes over time or you start riding harder, a service and inspection will restore intended function and allow internal tuning to match your use.
