The Ohlins STX 46 street rear shock for Yamaha FJ 1200 is built to provide controlled, repeatable damping for real-world road riding. It uses a monotube architecture aimed at improving chassis stability and tyre contact across changing surfaces. This unit is designed for riders who want clearer feedback and a wider, more tunable setup window than a typical standard shock.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins street shocks take proven damping concepts and package them for day-to-day ride quality and consistency. The focus is on predictable behaviour through corners, braking and acceleration, with adjustments that let you tailor the feel to your load and riding style.

Who this shock is for

  • FJ 1200 owners refreshing a worn rear shock to restore control and ride quality
  • Riders who want a more planted rear end under braking and when driving out of corners
  • Sport-touring riders carrying luggage or a passenger who need better control over rear suspension behaviour

Shock design & features

This is an oil and gas separated rear shock design intended to reduce damping fade during sustained use. The monotube layout supports stable damping response and consistent feel across a range of road conditions.

Tuning controls

Adjustment is provided for rebound damping and spring preload, allowing you to balance support and comfort and to match the bike to rider weight and usage. These controls are intended to make small, measurable changes without forcing a complete revalve for typical setup needs.

Before you install

  • Confirm the shock is intended for Yamaha FJ 1200 fitment and rear position before installation
  • Inspect linkage and mounting hardware for wear so the new shock can work as intended
  • After fitment, set sag and then fine-tune rebound to suit your tyres, load and road conditions

Serviceability/lifecycle

Ohlins shocks are designed to be maintained over their service life. Periodic servicing helps keep damping performance consistent and extends component life, particularly if the bike is used in wet conditions or over rough roads.

Öhlins Motorcycle Suspension Warranty

New Öhlins motorcycle shock absorbers, front forks and cartridge kits supplied by Teknik Motorsport are covered by the applicable Öhlins manufacturer’s warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.

Teknik Motorsport is an authorised Öhlins Service Centre and administers warranty claims in accordance with the Öhlins warranty conditions. The service intervals below form part of the maintenance requirements for Öhlins products supplied and supported by Teknik Motorsport.

This warranty is in addition to the consumer guarantees that apply under the Australian Consumer Law.

  • Registered motorcycles — non-competition road use Five years, subject to correct application, installation, setup and servicing every: 20,000 km or two years, whichever occurs first.
  • Registered motorcycles — adventure and light off-road use Five years, subject to correct application, spring rate, setup and servicing every: 10,000 km or annually, whichever occurs first.
  • Unregistered or competition motorcycles Two years for eligible Öhlins MX and Enduro products, subject to inspection every ten hours and servicing every: 30 operating hours or annually, whichever occurs first.

Compliance with the applicable service interval is a condition of the Öhlins manufacturer’s warranty. Evidence of servicing may be required when a warranty claim is assessed.

A seal leak, loss of damping performance or internal wear arising after the prescribed service interval has been exceeded will be treated as a service or maintenance issue rather than a manufacturing defect.

Warranty repairs

Öhlins suspension products are designed to be serviced and repaired. Where a warranty claim is approved, the normal remedy is repair of the customer’s original suspension unit using genuine Öhlins replacement parts.

Replacement of a complete shock absorber, fork or cartridge kit is not automatic and would normally occur only where the product has suffered a manufacturing failure that cannot reasonably be repaired. This is at Ohlins discretion. 

Öhlins spare parts and service kits

Öhlins spare parts, seals, bushes, service kits, springs, fluids and individual components are covered only against defects present when supplied.

No fixed age-based warranty applies to wear items, service parts or consumable components. Wear, deterioration, contamination, incorrect installation and damage caused by another component are not manufacturing defects.

Öhlins gives the customer a meaningful five-year warranty on products (Units), provided the suspension is maintained as suspension should be maintained. Teknik supports that warranty locally, can inspect the product properly, and can repair it with genuine parts rather than discarding it.
