The Ohlins BM887 TTX RT rear shock is built for the BMW S 1000 RR rider chasing consistent control and clear rear-end feedback. It uses Ohlins’ twin-tube damping layout to keep damping behaviour stable as conditions change. Designed for performance road and track use, it supports precise setup without needing to overcomplicate the bike.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

TTX RT technology is derived from Ohlins’ racing development, focused on predictable damping, traction management and confidence when the pace rises. The design aims to maintain composure through braking zones, mid-corner load and acceleration.

Shock design & features

This is a gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated rear mono shock using a twin-tube damping architecture. The layout helps reduce fade and supports consistent damping response under repeated hard use. The unit is supplied with a spring fitted.

Tuning controls

Adjustment is provided for rebound damping and compression damping, allowing you to balance grip, support and chassis attitude. Compression adjustment helps manage squat and stability under load, while rebound adjustment helps control how quickly the rear returns after bumps and corner exit drive.

Base setup (factory preset)

The shock is delivered with an Ohlins baseline setting intended to be a safe starting point for typical road and track conditions. Fine-tuning should be done methodically, one change at a time, to match tyres, rider load and riding style.

Before you install

Confirm correct fitment for your exact BMW S 1000 RR model and year, and inspect linkage bearings and mounting hardware while the unit is off the bike. After installation, check static and rider sag, then reassess damping once ride height and spring preload are set.

Serviceability/lifecycle

As with all high-performance suspension, periodic servicing keeps damping consistent and protects internal components. Service intervals depend on use intensity and environment, with track use typically requiring more frequent attention than road riding.
