The Ohlins HO144 is an STX 36 twin rear shock developed for the Honda CB 1000 BIG to improve damping control and chassis stability on the road. It uses a gas-pressurised design to help maintain consistent damping during sustained riding. This is a serviceable unit intended for riders who want a more controlled, tuneable rear end than a basic replacement shock.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Built around Ohlins STX architecture, this twin rear shock focuses on predictable response and controlled wheel movement. The design is aimed at improving traction and stability through a broader range of real-world conditions.

Shock design & features

  • Gas-pressurised oil/gas separated damping system to support consistency during longer rides
  • STX 36 twin-shock format for the Honda CB 1000 BIG rear fitment
  • Valving designed for controlled damping response and chassis feedback

Tuning controls

This shock provides external rebound damping adjustment and compression damping adjustment, allowing you to tailor response for load, tyres and road conditions. It also includes a length adjustment feature for ride-height fine-tuning during setup.

Is it right for you?

Choose this unit if you want adjustable rebound and compression damping with the ability to fine-tune ride height, and you prefer a gas-pressurised design for damping consistency. It suits riders prioritising controlled handling and stable traction on the street.

Before you install

Confirm compatibility with the Honda CB 1000 BIG rear twin-shock mounting, and note it is supplied with an Ohlins spring fitted. After installation, check sag and then refine damping settings from the baseline to suit your load and riding conditions.
