The Ohlins STX 46 Street rear shock for the BMW F 650 CS is built to deliver controlled, consistent damping for everyday road use. It is a monotube design with a separated oil and gas layout to help maintain damping stability as conditions change. Adjustment is provided to tailor ride feel and chassis behaviour to your bike and loading.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins road shocks are developed from motorsport know-how, with a focus on predictable damping and clear feedback. The aim is improved control through corners, under braking, and across uneven surfaces.

Who this shock is for

  • Riders who want a more controlled rear end on the street without sacrificing comfort.
  • Owners carrying a passenger or luggage who need more support and consistency.
  • Anyone refreshing a worn or tired OEM rear shock to restore handling and stability.

Shock design & features

This is an STX 46 Street monotube rear shock with separated oil and gas. The internal layout is intended to keep damping more consistent during sustained riding and repeated impacts.

Tuning controls

This unit includes rebound damping adjustment to refine how the shock extends after bumps and weight transfer. Spring preload adjustment is provided to set ride height and sag for rider weight and load.

Before you install

  • Set sag and preload first, then fine-tune rebound damping in small steps based on grip and ride quality.
  • Inspect linkages, bearings, and mounting hardware condition during fitment.
  • After installation, recheck fastener torque and confirm there is no interference through full suspension travel.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Ohlins shocks are designed to be serviced to maintain performance over time. Periodic oil and seal service helps preserve damping consistency and keeps internal wear under control.
