The Ohlins STX 46 Street rear shock for the Ducati Monster 1200S is built to deliver controlled, consistent damping in real-world road riding. Developed from Ohlins suspension engineering used across performance applications, it focuses on stability, grip and clear chassis feedback. This unit uses a separated oil and gas design to help maintain damping consistency as conditions change.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

STX 46 Street shocks are engineered for riders who want a composed, confidence-inspiring rear end without sacrificing everyday ride quality. The damping character is designed to be predictable and tunable, making it suitable for spirited street riding and occasional track use.

Who this shock is for

  • Monster 1200S owners chasing improved rear-wheel control and stability.
  • Riders who want adjustability to suit different roads, loads and riding pace.
  • Anyone looking to replace a worn rear unit with a serviceable, performance-focused shock.

Shock design & features

This is an Ohlins monotube rear mono shock in the STX 46 Street family. The internal architecture separates oil and gas, supporting consistent damping behaviour and reducing fade during extended hard use. The design is intended to improve traction and chassis support through braking, corner entry and acceleration.

Tuning controls

The DU111 provides external damping adjustments for both compression and rebound. These controls allow you to balance comfort, support and grip to match your tyres, riding style and typical road surfaces.

Before you install

  • Set sag and baseline damping after fitment to suit rider weight and typical load.
  • Inspect linkage bearings and mounting hardware condition, as worn components can mask suspension improvements.
  • If you change tyres or ride conditions significantly, revisit your settings for best results.

Serviceability/lifecycle

As a performance shock, regular servicing helps keep damping consistent and protects internal components from wear. Service intervals depend on usage conditions, kilometres and how hard the bike is ridden.

Öhlins Motorcycle Suspension Warranty

New Öhlins motorcycle shock absorbers, front forks and cartridge kits supplied by Teknik Motorsport are covered by the applicable Öhlins manufacturer’s warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.

Teknik Motorsport is an authorised Öhlins Service Centre and administers warranty claims in accordance with the Öhlins warranty conditions. The service intervals below form part of the maintenance requirements for Öhlins products supplied and supported by Teknik Motorsport.

This warranty is in addition to the consumer guarantees that apply under the Australian Consumer Law.

  • Registered motorcycles — non-competition road use Five years, subject to correct application, installation, setup and servicing every: 20,000 km or two years, whichever occurs first.
  • Registered motorcycles — adventure and light off-road use Five years, subject to correct application, spring rate, setup and servicing every: 10,000 km or annually, whichever occurs first.
  • Unregistered or competition motorcycles Two years for eligible Öhlins MX and Enduro products, subject to inspection every ten hours and servicing every: 30 operating hours or annually, whichever occurs first.

Compliance with the applicable service interval is a condition of the Öhlins manufacturer’s warranty. Evidence of servicing may be required when a warranty claim is assessed.

A seal leak, loss of damping performance or internal wear arising after the prescribed service interval has been exceeded will be treated as a service or maintenance issue rather than a manufacturing defect.

Warranty repairs

Öhlins suspension products are designed to be serviced and repaired. Where a warranty claim is approved, the normal remedy is repair of the customer’s original suspension unit using genuine Öhlins replacement parts.

Replacement of a complete shock absorber, fork or cartridge kit is not automatic and would normally occur only where the product has suffered a manufacturing failure that cannot reasonably be repaired. This is at Ohlins discretion. 

Öhlins spare parts and service kits

Öhlins spare parts, seals, bushes, service kits, springs, fluids and individual components are covered only against defects present when supplied.

No fixed age-based warranty applies to wear items, service parts or consumable components. Wear, deterioration, contamination, incorrect installation and damage caused by another component are not manufacturing defects.

Öhlins gives the customer a meaningful five-year warranty on products (Units), provided the suspension is maintained as suspension should be maintained. Teknik supports that warranty locally, can inspect the product properly, and can repair it with genuine parts rather than discarding it.
