The Ohlins STX 46 Street rear shock for Suzuki GSF 650 Bandit and GSX 650F is a mono-shock replacement aimed at improving damping control and consistency on the road. Built around Ohlins STX architecture, it is designed to deliver stable chassis behaviour and clearer feedback across changing surfaces. This unit is supplied as a complete rear shock assembly with a fitted spring.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins street shocks are developed with a focus on controlled damping, predictable feel and long-term serviceability. The STX 46 Street family is intended for real-world riding where comfort, grip and stability all matter.

Who this shock is for

  • Riders wanting a more controlled, confidence-inspiring rear end on the street
  • Owners refreshing worn OEM suspension with a serviceable aftermarket unit
  • Riders who value adjustability for different loads and road conditions

Shock design & features

This is an oil/gas separated design to help maintain damping consistency as the shock works. The STX layout is engineered to provide stable damping behaviour and a planted feel through typical road speeds and surface changes.

Tuning controls

This rear shock includes rebound damping adjustment and a spring preload adjuster, allowing you to set ride height/feel for rider weight and luggage, then fine-tune recovery control after bumps and corner loads.

Before you install

  • Confirm application and clearances for your exact Suzuki GSF 650 Bandit or GSX 650F model/variant
  • Set sag and preload first, then use rebound adjustment to control chassis movement without harshness
  • Inspect linkage bearings and mounting hardware condition during installation

Serviceability/lifecycle

Like other Ohlins units, this shock is designed to be serviced and reconditioned to maintain performance over time. Routine servicing helps keep damping consistent and protects internal components from wear and contamination.
