The Ohlins STX 36 Blackline front shock for Vespa GTS 300 is built to improve control and ride quality through more consistent damping. It’s designed for riders who want a more settled front end without compromising the scooter’s classic look. As an Ohlins unit, it focuses on stability and feedback across everyday road conditions.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Developed from Ohlins suspension know-how, the STX 36 Blackline range pairs modern damping performance with a finish suited to classic and custom builds. The aim is predictable response and improved front-end composure under braking and over rough surfaces.

Who this shock is for

  • Vespa GTS 300 riders looking for a more controlled, stable front end
  • Owners who want a quality suspension upgrade that suits vintage or custom styling
  • Riders who value tunability to match load, tyre choice, and road conditions

Shock design & features

This is a gas-pressurised monotube shock design intended to keep damping consistent as conditions change. The Blackline finish is intended to complement classic aesthetics while delivering modern suspension function.

Tuning controls

This unit provides external adjustment for spring preload and damping, allowing you to tailor feel and support. It includes compression and rebound damping adjustment, so you can balance comfort, steering stability, and control to suit your riding.

Before you install

  • Confirm fitment for your Vespa GTS 300 and check mounting hardware condition during installation.
  • After installation, set baseline preload and damping, then fine-tune after a short test ride.
  • For best results, adjust one circuit at a time (rebound or compression) and document your changes.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Ohlins shocks are designed to be serviced to maintain damping performance over time. Periodic inspection and servicing helps keep the ride consistent and protects internal components, especially if the scooter is used regularly or on rough roads.
