The Ohlins YA558 STX 36 Twin rear shock set is built for the Yamaha XJR 1300, focusing on controlled damping and stable chassis behaviour on the road. This is a gas-pressurised design intended to maintain damping consistency as conditions change. It also provides external adjusters so you can tailor feel and response to rider preference and load.
