The Ohlins STX 46 Street rear shock for BMW F 800 S and F 800 ST is designed for riders who want more control, feel and consistency from the back of the bike. Built around Ohlins road-focused damping architecture, it targets improved stability under braking and better drive on corner exit. It is a gas-charged, oil/gas separated shock to help maintain damping consistency as conditions change.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins suspension development comes from competition engineering, then refined for real-world street use. The result is predictable damping behaviour, clearer feedback and a chassis that stays composed when the pace lifts.

Who this shock is for

  • Street riders chasing more planted rear-end control and confidence through corners
  • Sport-touring riders carrying varying loads who want a more controlled ride
  • Riders who value adjustability to tailor feel and balance

Shock design & features

This is an STX 46 Street mono shock using a gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated design. The internal layout is intended to provide consistent damping and strong wheel control across a wide range of road inputs.

Tuning controls

This shock provides rebound damping adjustment so you can control how quickly the rear returns after being compressed. It also includes spring preload adjustment to set ride height and support for rider weight and load.

Before you install

  • Confirm your sag and preload settings after installation, then fine-tune rebound to suit tyres, roads and riding style
  • Inspect linkage bearings and mounting hardware condition during fitment
  • Any adjustments should be made in small steps so changes are easy to assess

Serviceability/lifecycle

As with all high-performance shocks, periodic servicing helps maintain damping consistency and internal wear control over time. Keeping the shock clean and addressing leaks or performance changes early will support long-term reliability.
