The Ohlins BI822 STX 36 twin shock is a rear suspension unit built for the Bimota YB 9. It is designed to deliver controlled damping and consistent chassis behaviour in road and spirited riding conditions. This unit uses a gas-pressurised damping design to help maintain damping stability as conditions change.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins road shocks are developed around predictable damping control and durability. The aim is to provide clear feedback and stable support so the bike remains composed through acceleration, braking and direction changes.

Shock design & features

  • STX 36 twin shock rear configuration for the Bimota YB 9
  • Gas-pressurised damping system to support consistent damping behaviour
  • Rear fitment for improved traction and stability through the stroke

Tuning controls

This shock provides external damping adjustment for compression and rebound, allowing you to tailor chassis support and wheel control to your riding style and conditions.

Base setup (factory preset)

Ohlins supplies this unit with a factory baseline intended to suit the standard application. Fine-tuning is typically done after installation to account for rider weight, tyre choice and how the bike is used.

Before you install

  • Confirm compatibility for Bimota YB 9 and rear mounting requirements before fitting.
  • Check surrounding clearances and linkage/bearing condition so the shock can work as intended.
  • After installation, set sag and then refine damping to suit your road conditions.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Like other Ohlins shocks, this unit is designed to be serviced to maintain performance over time. Regular inspection and periodic servicing help keep damping consistent and protect internal components.
