The Ohlins STX 46 Street rear shock for Honda CB500F and CBR500R is built to improve chassis control and road feel in everyday street riding. It uses a gas-pressurised design to help maintain consistent damping as conditions change. Independent damping circuits allow you to tailor the response to your bike setup and riding style.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Developed from Ohlins racing know-how and adapted for street use, this unit is aimed at riders who want clearer feedback and more stable behaviour during braking, corner entry and acceleration.

Who this shock is for

  • Honda CB500F and CBR500R riders upgrading from standard suspension
  • Street riders who value stability, grip feel and predictable damping
  • Owners looking for a quality rear mono shock with tuning flexibility

Shock design & features

  • Gas-pressurised shock architecture for consistent damping and resistance to fade
  • STX 46 Street platform focused on traction and chassis feedback
  • Race-proven valving approach to support cornering stability and drive out of turns

Tuning controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment
  • Compression damping adjustment

Is it right for you?

If you want a rear shock that can be dialled in for different roads and rider preferences, with a gas-pressurised design and separate compression and rebound control, this STX 46 Street unit suits that brief. If you prefer a fit-and-forget option with minimal adjustability, another configuration may be a better match.

Before you install

Confirm compatibility with your exact model and year of CB500F or CBR500R before fitting. After installation, set sag and damping to suit your weight, tyres and typical riding conditions.
