The Ohlins BM906 STX 46 Street rear shock is designed to improve control and comfort for BMW K 1300 GT, K 1300 R and K 1300 S models in real-world road riding. Built around a monotube architecture, it uses separated oil and gas to keep damping consistent as conditions change. It’s a practical upgrade for riders who want clearer feedback and more stable chassis behaviour without turning the bike into a race setup.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins street shocks carry over proven damping principles from competition, adapted for everyday traction, stability and compliance. The focus is predictable response and confidence-inspiring support through braking, cornering and acceleration.

Who this shock is for

  • Riders who want a more controlled, settled rear end on the road.
  • Owners refreshing worn suspension to restore stability and grip.
  • Sport-touring and sporty street riders chasing better feedback and consistency.

Shock design & features

This is a rear mono shock with an Ohlins STX 46 Street design using separated oil and gas for consistent damping behaviour. The internal layout is intended to reduce fade and maintain control during longer or harder rides.

Tuning controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment to tailor how quickly the shock extends after compression.
  • Single combined compression/adjuster architecture (not independently adjustable compression).

Before you install

  • Confirm fitment for your exact BMW K 1300 GT/K 1300 R/K 1300 S variant and year.
  • Set sag and damping after installation to suit your weight, load and typical riding.
  • Inspect linkage, bearings and mounting hardware so the shock can work as intended.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Like all performance suspension, this unit is designed to be maintained and serviced rather than treated as disposable. Periodic servicing helps keep damping consistent and extends the working life of internal components.
