The Ohlins STX 46 Street rear shock for Yamaha MT-09 SP is built to deliver controlled damping and clear feedback for spirited road riding. It uses a gas-charged, oil/gas separated design to keep damping consistent as conditions and pace change. Adjustability is provided for both rebound and compression so you can tune feel and support to suit your tyres, load and riding style.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Developed from Ohlins race engineering, the STX 46 Street range focuses on predictable behaviour and stability without losing compliance. The aim is a rear end that tracks cleanly, maintains traction and communicates grip levels clearly.

Who this shock is for

  • MT-09 SP owners wanting more control and consistency than a stock rear unit can offer on real roads.
  • Riders who value damping feel and chassis support during braking, turn-in and corner exits.
  • Anyone who wants the ability to tune suspension behaviour for solo riding, luggage or faster pace.

Shock design & features

This is a gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated rear mono shock from the Ohlins STX 46 Street family. The separated gas design helps reduce fade and maintain consistent damping behaviour during longer rides.

Tuning controls

External damping adjustments are provided for rebound and compression. These controls let you fine-tune how the rear responds to bumps, weight transfer and throttle application, helping you balance comfort, grip and support.

Before you install

  • Confirm fitment for Yamaha MT-09 SP and check the supplied spring is correct for your typical rider weight and load.
  • After installation, set sag and then fine-tune rebound and compression to match your tyres and road conditions.
  • If you change tyres, ride height, or add regular luggage/passenger load, plan to revisit your settings.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Like all performance suspension, this unit benefits from routine servicing to keep damping consistent and internal wear controlled. Periodic oil and seal maintenance helps preserve ride quality and adjustment range over time.
