The Ohlins KT1882 is a TTX Flow rear shock absorber designed for KTM off-road models listed in this listing. Built around Ohlins’ twin-tube damping concept, it’s aimed at delivering predictable control and consistent feel across changing terrain. This unit is supplied without a spring, allowing spring choice to be matched to rider and application.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

TTX Flow technology is developed from Ohlins’ competition suspension programs and adapted for enduro use. The focus is on controlled damping behaviour and a usable adjustment range for riders who want to tune chassis balance and traction. It’s a purpose-built rear mono shock for KTM fitment as specified.

Shock design & features

This shock uses an oil/gas separated design to help maintain damping consistency as conditions and workload change. The TTX Flow architecture is intended to provide stable damping characteristics and improved control through repeated impacts. A spring is not supplied; refer to the noted spring series and select an appropriate spring separately.

Tuning controls

The KT1882 provides external damping adjustments for both compression and rebound, allowing you to tailor response for terrain, pace and tyre choice. Compression adjustment is provided in two ranges (low-speed and high-speed) for separating chassis attitude control from sharper hit compliance. Rebound adjustment is used to manage return speed and maintain traction over successive bumps.

Before you install

Confirm spring selection before installation as this unit is supplied with no spring. Follow the motorcycle workshop manual for correct mounting procedures and torque settings, and check clearances after fitment. An initial sag and clicker baseline should be established once the correct spring is installed.

Serviceability/lifecycle

As a serviceable performance shock, periodic oil and seal service helps keep damping consistent and reduce wear. Service intervals depend on riding conditions and hours, particularly in mud, dust, or sustained high-speed use. Keeping the shock clean around seals and adjusters will help preserve long-term reliability.
