The Ohlins TR326 STX 36 twin shock is a rear suspension unit built for the Triumph Bonneville platform, aimed at improving control and consistency in real-world road riding. Based on Ohlins road and race development, it focuses on stable damping behaviour and clear chassis feedback. This is a gas-pressurised design to help maintain damping performance across sustained use.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins suspension is designed around predictable damping response and dependable component quality. The STX 36 twin shock layout suits classic twin-shock chassis while bringing modern damper architecture to the rear of the bike.

Shock design & features

  • STX 36 twin shock rear configuration for twin-shock applications
  • Gas-pressurised design to support consistent damping behaviour
  • Separate damping circuits for compression and rebound control

Tuning controls

This unit provides external adjustment for both compression damping and rebound damping, allowing you to tailor support, grip, and recovery to your load and riding conditions.

Base setup (factory preset)

The shock is supplied with an Ohlins baseline tune intended as a starting point for typical street use. From there, compression and rebound adjustments can be used to fine-tune comfort, stability, and traction to suit your tyres, rider weight, and pace.

Before you install

  • Confirm the intended fitment for Triumph Bonneville models using SKU TR326
  • Ensure the mounting hardware is in good condition and torqued to the motorcycle manufacturer’s specifications
  • After installation, set sag and then fine-tune rebound and compression to match your ride height and load

Serviceability/lifecycle

As a rebuildable Ohlins shock, the TR326 can be serviced to restore performance as oil and wear components age. Regular servicing helps maintain damping consistency and protects internal parts over the long term.
