The Ohlins STX 46 Adventure rear shock for Triumph Tiger is built for controlled compliance on rough roads and mixed-surface riding. It is designed to maintain stability when conditions change and when the bike is carrying added load. The STX architecture focuses on consistent damping and predictable feel across long days in the saddle.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Developed from Ohlins suspension know-how, this unit is intended to deliver reliable damping control for adventure and touring use. It is a complete replacement rear mono shock designed to suit the Tiger application.

Who this shock is for

  • Riders who spend time on corrugations, broken bitumen and gravel and want calmer chassis behaviour
  • Touring riders who regularly add luggage or a pillion and need stability to match
  • Owners looking for a serviceable, tuneable rear shock rather than a sealed OEM-style unit

Shock design & features

This is an oil/gas separated shock design for more stable damping under sustained use. The STX 46 layout is aimed at maintaining control and consistency as temperatures and terrain vary.

Tuning controls

External adjustment is provided for rebound damping, compression damping, and spring preload, allowing practical tuning for load, tyres and riding conditions without disassembly.

Before you install

  • Confirm suitability for your exact Triumph Tiger model and year before fitting
  • Set sag and preload for your typical load (solo, luggage, pillion) as the first step before fine damping changes
  • After installation, re-check fasteners and clearances through full suspension travel

Serviceability/lifecycle

As an Ohlins unit, it is intended to be maintained over its service life with regular oil and seal servicing to keep damping performance consistent. Service intervals depend on riding conditions, especially dust, water crossings and sustained rough-road use.
