The Ohlins STX 36 Blackline rear shock pair is built for Harley-Davidson VRSC V-Rod models needing more controlled rear suspension without changing the bike’s character. This is a twin-shock rear setup designed for consistent damping performance and practical tuneability. It combines a Blackline finish with Ohlins road-proven internal design.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins suspension is engineered with a focus on stable damping behaviour and repeatable adjustment. The STX 36 Blackline family is suited to road use where comfort, traction and control matter as much as appearance.

Shock design & features

  • STX 36 Blackline rear twin-shock arrangement for the VRSC V-Rod
  • Oil/gas separated design for more consistent damping under use
  • Black spring and Blackline finishes to suit custom and factory styling

Tuning controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment
  • Spring preload adjustment

Before you install

  • Fitment note: does not fit with Harley Davidson Factory Tuning and 250mm tyres or bigger
  • Confirm clearance around tyre, belt/chain line and exhaust as part of installation planning

Serviceability/lifecycle

Ohlins units are designed to be serviceable to maintain performance over time. Regular inspection and periodic servicing helps keep damping consistent and extends component life.

Is it right for you?

This rear shock pair suits riders who want adjustable rebound and preload to refine ride comfort and chassis control on a VRSC V-Rod. If you require compression adjustment or need compatibility with Factory Tuning and larger rear tyres, this setup may not be suitable.
