The Ohlins HD744 STX 36 Twin shock set is built for Harley-Davidson Sportster models using a twin rear shock arrangement. It’s designed to improve chassis control and traction with stable damping performance under sustained use. This unit uses a gas-pressurised design to help maintain consistent behaviour as conditions and temperatures change.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Developed from Ohlins suspension know-how, the STX 36 Twin platform focuses on controlled damping, predictable feedback and durability for real-world riding. The result is a rear suspension package aimed at riders who want clearer feel and more confidence without compromising everyday usability.

Who this shock is for

  • Sportster riders wanting more controlled rear support and improved stability.
  • Riders who value consistent damping feel on longer or harder rides.
  • Owners seeking adjustability to suit load, roads and riding style.

Shock design & features

  • STX 36 Twin rear shock configuration for twin-shock Harley-Davidson applications.
  • Gas-pressurised damping design to reduce fade and keep damping behaviour consistent.
  • Race-derived valving approach intended to improve traction and chassis feedback.

Tuning controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment to tailor how the rear returns after bumps and load changes.
  • Compression damping adjustment to tune support and control under braking, bumps and cornering loads.

Before you install

  • Confirm fitment for your exact Sportster model and year and check clearance around exhaust, guards and accessories.
  • Set sag and baseline damping carefully before making fine adjustments.
  • If your riding load varies (passenger/luggage), note your settings so you can return to known baselines.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Ohlins shocks are designed to be serviced to maintain performance over time. Periodic servicing helps keep damping consistent and extends component life, particularly when the bike is ridden frequently or in harsher conditions.
