The Ohlins BM347 is a rear shock built for BMW K 1200 RS riders who want consistent control and comfort over long distances. As part of the STX 46 Adventure family, it is designed to maintain chassis stability when conditions and loads change. It suits riders who want a quality suspension foundation with practical adjustment for real-world riding.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins suspension is developed with a focus on predictable damping behaviour, ride comfort and tyre contact. This unit is intended to support touring and adventure-style use where stability and confidence matter more than outright stiffness.

Who this shock is for

  • Riders covering big kilometres who want reduced fatigue through improved bump control
  • Those carrying luggage and/or a pillion and needing a more stable rear end
  • Owners looking to restore or improve rear suspension performance with a serviceable aftermarket unit

Shock design & features

This is a rear mono shock from the STX 46 Adventure range with oil and gas separated to help maintain damping consistency as conditions change. The architecture is aimed at durability and controlled response across mixed surfaces typical of touring and adventure riding.

Tuning controls

The BM347 provides external adjustment for rebound damping, compression damping and spring preload. These controls let you balance comfort, support and stability for changes in pace, surface, luggage or passenger load.

Before you install

  • Confirm fitment for your BMW K 1200 RS and check mounting hardware condition during installation
  • Set sag and baseline adjuster positions after installation, then fine-tune in small steps
  • Plan periodic servicing to keep damping performance consistent over time
