The Ohlins YA055 STX 46 Street rear shock is built to improve chassis control and ride quality on the Yamaha XJ 600 S Diversion. Developed from Ohlins racing experience, it delivers consistent damping behaviour and clearer feedback through the rear tyre. It is a direct-fit replacement designed for road use where stability and compliance both matter.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

As part of the STX 46 Street range, this unit is designed to offer controlled damping and predictable handling in everyday riding. The focus is on stability through corners, confidence under braking, and improved traction when accelerating.

Shock design & features

  • Monotube, oil/gas separated design for consistent damping under sustained use
  • Road-focused internal valving aimed at stability and grip
  • Supplied with an Ohlins spring fitted

Tuning controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment

Is it right for you?

This shock suits riders who want more control and composure than a typical ageing OE unit, without turning the bike into a harsh ride. If you prefer simple, effective adjustment and want a set-and-forget base with the option to fine-tune, this is a good match for street riding on the Diversion.

Before you install

  • Confirm correct fitment to your exact model and year before installation
  • After installation, check sag and balance front-to-rear to get the best result from the rebound adjuster

Serviceability/lifecycle

Like other Ohlins shocks, the YA055 is intended to be serviced to maintain performance over time. Regular servicing helps keep damping consistent and extends component life.
