Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins suspension is developed with a strong emphasis on damping control, durability and serviceability. This unit is intended to maintain composure over long distances and varied conditions, helping the bike stay settled under braking, acceleration and load changes.

Who this shock is for

  • Triumph Tiger 800 owners riding adventure, touring and unsealed roads
  • Riders carrying luggage or a pillion who want more consistent rear support
  • Anyone chasing better rear grip and stability on rough or broken surfaces

Shock design & features

This is a monotube shock with a separated oil and gas layout to help keep damping consistent when conditions get hot and rough. The STX architecture is aimed at maintaining controlled oil flow and stable performance across long ride days.

Tuning controls

External adjustment is provided for rebound damping and compression damping, along with spring preload. These controls allow you to balance comfort, traction and support depending on load and terrain without needing internal changes.

Before you install

  • Set spring preload to suit rider weight and typical luggage/pillion use before evaluating damping changes
  • Make one change at a time and test on familiar roads to understand its effect
  • Check linkage bearings and mounting hardware condition during fitment to ensure the shock can work freely

Serviceability/lifecycle

As an Ohlins unit, this shock is designed to be serviced and revalved. Periodic maintenance helps restore damping consistency and keeps seal wear, oil condition and internal components in good order over the long term.
