The Ohlins STX 46 Street rear shock is built for Honda CB500X riders who want more control and consistency from the rear suspension on the road. Based on Ohlins design principles used across their performance range, it focuses on stable damping behaviour and clear chassis feedback. The gas-pressurised layout helps maintain damping performance during longer rides.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins engineering centres on predictable damping and repeatable adjustment. This unit is designed to improve traction and stability while keeping the ride feel controlled and composed for everyday street use.

Who this shock is for

Suited to riders using the CB500X for commuting, weekend riding, and general road touring who want a more refined rear-end response. It’s also appropriate if you carry luggage or frequently change road pace and want suspension that’s easier to tune to your preference.

Shock design & features

This is a gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated rear mono shock in Ohlins STX 46 Street family. The architecture is intended to reduce fade and keep damping behaviour consistent as conditions change.

Tuning controls

It provides rebound damping adjustment and compression damping adjustment, allowing you to balance comfort, grip, and chassis control for your riding conditions. These controls support fine changes without needing internal modifications.

Before you install

  • Confirm fitment for Honda CB500X and check clearance around any accessories or luggage hardware.
  • Inspect linkage and mounting hardware condition before installation.
  • After fitting, set sag and then refine compression and rebound to match your load and riding style.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Like performance suspension, this shock is designed to be serviced to maintain consistent damping over its lifecycle. Periodic inspection and scheduled servicing will help keep it operating as intended.
