The Ohlins SU708 STX 46 Street rear shock is built to improve ride control and stability on the Suzuki C 800, C 800C and VL 800. Using a gas-pressurised damping layout, it aims to keep damping behaviour consistent as conditions change. Designed as a rear mono shock, it provides a more controlled platform for everyday road riding and touring.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins street shocks are developed with a focus on predictable damping behaviour and clear feedback. The goal is to help the chassis stay composed over varying road surfaces while maintaining comfort and control.

Who this shock is for

  • Riders wanting more controlled suspension behaviour than a worn or basic OE unit
  • Owners who value tuneability for load changes (solo, pillion, luggage)
  • Street riders looking for consistent damping feel over longer rides

Shock design & features

  • STX 46 Street rear mono shock architecture
  • Gas-pressurised damping system to help reduce fade and maintain consistency
  • Supplied with an Ohlins spring (yellow)

Before you install

  • Confirm compatibility with your exact model and year within the Suzuki C 800 / C 800C / VL 800 range
  • Set rider sag and verify clearances through full suspension travel after installation
  • If you regularly carry a pillion or luggage, ensure spring and setup suit your typical load
