The Ohlins STX 46 Supersport rear shock for the Yamaha XJ 600 Diversion is built to deliver consistent damping control and clear chassis feedback. It uses a gas-pressurised damping design to help reduce fade during sustained spirited riding. Independent damping circuits let you tailor the feel to your tyres, load and road conditions without overcomplicating setup.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Developed from Ohlins’ track-driven damping approach, this Supersport series unit focuses on predictable support and traction. The result is a rear end that remains composed through braking, turn-in and corner exit. It’s intended for riders who want more control rather than a harsher ride.

Who this shock is for

Suited to riders upgrading the standard rear suspension on an XJ 600 Diversion for better stability and feel. It’s a good match for sporty road riding and riders who want a wider tuning window for solo and varying load conditions. If you value feedback and adjustability over a “set and forget” shock, it fits the brief.

Shock design & features

This is a gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated shock design intended to keep damping consistent as temperatures rise. The architecture is aimed at improving traction and stability by maintaining controlled oil flow through the damping system. It’s built around Ohlins’ Supersport STX concept for responsive performance on the road.

Tuning controls

Adjustment is provided for rebound damping and compression damping, allowing you to refine how the rear settles after bumps and how it resists squat and pitch under load. These controls make it easier to balance comfort, grip and chassis attitude for different tyres and riding styles. Small changes can be used to sharpen response or add compliance depending on your priority.

Before you install

  • Confirm correct fitment for your Yamaha XJ 600 Diversion and check clearance around the shock body and adjusters.
  • Inspect linkage and mounting hardware condition, as worn bearings or bushes can mask the benefits of a new shock.
  • Set sag and baseline adjustments after installation before making further tuning changes.
