The Ohlins STX 46 Street rear shock for the Honda CB650F and CBR650F is built to improve chassis control and consistency over the standard unit. It is designed to deliver more predictable damping behaviour across everyday road conditions while supporting a sport-focused setup. This is a rear mono shock configuration intended for the sport-fairing application.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Developed from Ohlins suspension architecture used across performance road and race applications, the STX 46 Street range focuses on stable damping control and clear feedback. The aim is controlled support through braking, corner entry and drive, without compromising ride quality for road use.

Shock design & features

  • STX 46 Street rear mono shock layout
  • Oil and gas separated internal design for more consistent damping under heat and repeated use
  • Application note: sport-fairing version fitment

Tuning controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment

Base setup (factory preset)

The shock is supplied with an Ohlins baseline setting intended as a starting point for the standard motorcycle configuration. Final settings should be confirmed to suit rider mass, typical load, tyre choice and riding conditions.

Before you install

  • Confirm compatibility with your exact model and year for Honda CB650F / CBR650F, noting the sport-fairing application note
  • Inspect linkage, bearings and mounting hardware condition before fitting
  • After installation, re-check all fasteners and verify suspension movement is free through full travel

Serviceability/lifecycle

Like all performance suspension, regular servicing helps maintain damping consistency and seal life. Service intervals depend on use, road conditions and how hard the bike is ridden.
