The Ohlins STX 46 Supersport rear shock for the Suzuki GSX-R 750 is built around race-derived damping control to support confident chassis behaviour under hard braking, corner entry and drive. It uses a gas-pressurised, separated oil/gas design to keep damping consistent as conditions and pace change. The architecture is aimed at riders who want clear feedback and practical adjustability without compromising reliability.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Developed from Ohlins racing experience, the STX 46 Supersport platform focuses on predictable damping control and consistent feel. It’s intended to improve traction and stability by keeping the rear tyre better supported through rapid load changes.

Who this shock is for

• Suzuki GSX-R 750 riders doing track days or fast road riding who want more control and feedback than a standard rear unit.
• Riders who prefer a shock with proper external adjustment to suit tyres, pace and surface conditions.
• Owners looking for a serviceable performance shock with a proven design lineage.

Shock design & features

This is a mono rear shock using Ohlins STX 46 Supersport internals with a gas-pressurised system that separates oil and gas to reduce fade and maintain damping consistency. The damping layout is designed to deliver stable support without dulling feel, especially when the bike is being pushed through braking and acceleration phases.

Tuning controls

The shock provides external rebound damping adjustment and external compression damping adjustment, allowing you to shape the bike’s response for grip, stability and support. It also includes length adjustment to help fine-tune ride height and chassis balance.

Before you install

• Set sag and check spring suitability for your load and intended use before chasing damping changes.
• Make one change at a time and record what you did, so adjustments remain purposeful and repeatable.
• After installation, re-check fasteners and clearances once the bike has been cycled through full suspension travel.

Serviceability/lifecycle

As a motorsport-grade unit, this shock is designed to be maintained with regular servicing to keep damping performance consistent. Periodic inspection and oil/gas refresh will help preserve ride quality and tuning accuracy over time.
