The Ohlins YA357 STX 36 twin rear shock set is built for Yamaha XV 950 Bolt and XV 950R fitment, focusing on controlled damping and consistent chassis behaviour. Based on Ohlins STX architecture, it uses a gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated design to help maintain damping consistency as conditions change. Tuning is straightforward, with adjustment aimed at tailoring feel and support to your riding and load.
