The Ohlins STX 46 Street rear shock for the BMW K 1200 RS is built to deliver controlled damping and consistent chassis behaviour for everyday road use. It’s designed to improve stability through corners and under braking while maintaining compliance over typical street surfaces. This unit uses a gas-pressurised damping layout to help keep performance consistent as conditions change.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins applies proven damping architecture and manufacturing quality to street-focused suspension packages. The STX 46 Street family is aimed at riders who want clearer feedback and more predictable control without turning the bike into a harsh ride.

Who this shock is for

Suited to BMW K 1200 RS riders looking to restore or improve rear-end control with more consistent damping than a tired or basic OE unit. It’s a practical choice for regular road kilometres where confidence, stability and traction matter more than chasing track-only settings.

Shock design & features

This is a monotube rear shock from the STX 46 Street range with a gas-pressurised damping system. The gas charge supports consistent oil control to help reduce fade and maintain damping stability during repeated bumps, braking and cornering loads.

Tuning controls

Adjustment is provided for rebound damping and compression damping, allowing you to tailor how the rear responds to road inputs and weight transfer. With both circuits available, you can refine comfort and control without relying on spring changes alone.

Before you install

Confirm correct fitment for the BMW K 1200 RS and inspect linkage bearings and mounting hardware condition before installation. After fitment, set sag and damping to a sensible baseline, then make small changes one at a time to match your load and riding conditions.

Serviceability/lifecycle

As a rebuildable Ohlins unit, this shock is intended to be serviced to maintain performance over time. Periodic inspection and oil/gas service helps keep damping consistent and protects internal components as kilometres accumulate.
