Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

It is a fit-for-purpose upgrade for riders who value tuning support and serviceability.

Who this shock is for

  • Suzuki DR 350 owners riding adventure, touring and unsealed roads
  • Riders carrying luggage or varying loads and wanting more consistent rear support
  • Anyone looking for a tunable rear mono shock with a proven architecture

Shock design & features

This is an STX 46 Adventure rear mono shock with an oil/gas separated design to help maintain damping consistency under prolonged use. The construction is aimed at durability and stable performance in off-road conditions. It is supplied with an Ohlins spring fitted.

Tuning controls

The shock includes external adjustment for rebound damping and compression damping, allowing you to tailor response for terrain and load changes. It also features hydraulic spring preload adjustment, making it easier to set ride height and balance without disassembly.

Before you install

  • Confirm fitment for Suzuki DR 350 and check clearance with your linkage and chain guide condition
  • Set sag and preload for your typical riding load after installation
