The Ohlins STX 46 Supersport rear shock for the Yamaha YZF R6 is built for riders chasing repeatable damping control and clear chassis feedback. Its pressurised gas design is intended to keep damping consistent as temperatures rise during hard use. This unit is a direct-fit rear mono shock upgrade for track-focused setups and fast road riding.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Developed from Ohlins racing experience, the STX platform targets stability, grip and predictable response. The focus is on controllable damping behaviour that supports confident braking, mid-corner balance and drive on corner exit.

Who this shock is for

  • YZF R6 owners wanting sharper rear-end control and improved feel under load
  • Supersport track riders needing consistent damping during longer sessions
  • Riders who value tunability to match tyres, pace and circuit conditions

Shock design & features

This is an oil/gas separated, pressurised monotube-style rear shock (not an emulsion layout). The STX 46 Supersport architecture is designed to maintain damping stability and reduce fade when worked hard.

Tuning controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment
  • Compression damping adjustment
  • Spring preload adjustment

Before you install

Confirm correct fitment for your Yamaha YZF R6 and check clearance around the shock body and adjusters. After installation, set sag and damping to suit your tyres and riding conditions, and recheck all fasteners after the first ride.

Serviceability/lifecycle

As a rebuildable Ohlins unit, the shock is intended to be serviced periodically to keep performance consistent. Routine servicing helps maintain damping control, seal condition and oil quality over time.
