Shock design & features

Tuning controls

This rear shock includes rebound damping adjustment, allowing you to fine-tune how quickly the suspension returns after compression. This helps balance comfort and control depending on road surface, load and riding style.

Before you install

  • Confirm the shock is specified for BMW K 1200 LT fitment and rear mono position
  • Set sag and check spring suitability for your typical load before fine damping changes
  • Inspect linkage and mounting hardware condition during installation
