The Ohlins HO232 STX 36 is a rear twin-shock solution developed for the Honda CB 750 Sevenfifty. It is built to improve chassis control and feedback through more consistent damping behaviour than typical ageing stock units. Designed for road use with a focus on stability and traction.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins suspension is engineered around controlled damping and repeatable performance. This unit is intended to give clearer feel at the tyre contact patch and more predictable support through cornering and braking.

Who this shock is for

Suited to CB 750 Sevenfifty owners wanting a quality rear suspension refresh, whether the goal is improved comfort, better composure on uneven roads, or more confidence when riding at a brisk pace. It is also a good fit when restoring or updating a twin-shock classic without compromising ride quality.

Shock design & features

This is a gas-pressurised rear twin-shock design to help maintain damping consistency as temperatures rise. The STX 36 architecture is aimed at keeping response controlled and stable across a wide range of road conditions.

Tuning controls

Provides damping adjustment for both compression and rebound, allowing you to balance support, grip and comfort to suit your riding and loading. Spring preload adjustment is also used to set the correct ride height and sag for your weight and any luggage or passenger use.

Before you install

  • Confirm fitment for the Honda CB 750 Sevenfifty and that you are replacing a rear twin-shock setup.
  • Set sag and preload first, then fine-tune rebound and compression to match road conditions and tyre choice.
  • Inspect bushings/mount hardware and replace worn parts to get the best performance from the new shocks.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Ohlins shocks are designed to be serviced to maintain performance over time. Periodic servicing helps keep damping consistent and extends component life, especially if the bike sees frequent use or rougher roads.
